Desktop vapes
Desktop vapes
Can anyone recommend a good desktop vaporiser that doesn't break the bank?
Arizer extreme q recommended so many to people there simple and work well £100 new £60-70 second hand vape balloons and the whip with a 3 speed fan 👍👌👌🙏🙏 I have a volcano as well and use a mighty as my portable but for the money the extreme Q 👍
Do you own glass already or would that need to be factored in?
And why a desktop? *I'm curious on that it's not essential ☺️
And why a desktop? *I'm curious on that it's not essential ☺️
I've got a Wolkenkraft FX Mini for my portable option, which is great, but I'd like something for longer, more sociable sessions.
Ok so if your happy to get second hand ebay has its fair share of these
Session desktops have fallen out of favour for the "heavies" which are desktops designed to extract in relatively few hits
I shall drop some links to various ones within that budget
Personally I feel.🎈 Ones are faffy but some ppl love them

Cheers DR. I figure if I don't get along with the one I buy I can always sell it on. Which models are the "heavies" you mentioned?
Session, digital, balloons and whip and LEDs

It would be hugely appreciated if any and all customers could think carefully before rating any product based on delivery time. I send everything same day or next day (depending on the hour of purchase) and always use RM first class. Sadly, first class doesn't appear to be the service it once was. A recent item took six days to arrive - SIX F****** DAYS! It only had to go 100 miles. Alas, there's little we can do, short of using dedicated couriers.
Luck of the postcode I think. The closer you live to a National sorting hub, the better your chances of an undisturbed service.
First class has always been terrible, years ago when I got UK orders on the dark web I would use first class signed for and even still I would RARELY get 1-2 days delivery, so I started using Tracked 24 or 48, now it’s only Tracked 24 or special delivery which is NND 80% of the time. Sadly you have to be ready to sacrifice a lot on delivery costs 😟
But a happy customer = a happy vendor !

Good night and God bless
Good night and God bless
I've never really been a royalist, but when I heard someone say the Queen's role was pointless because she wasn't a democratically elected individual I couldn't help but defend her. If the democratically elective process provides us with a shit-stain like Boris Johnson, a duplicitous privileged cunt who couldn't even serve the British people with honesty and integrity for just two years, then I'll take a Queen any day.
I 2nd Pollypuffs comment and totally agree with yours...I also don't consider myself a "royalist" either but I do understand and recognize 100% dedication and lifelong service to our nation...She was both inspirational,iconic and unique...the like of which we shall probably never see again.

Peace, love and support
Peace, love and support
I find it incredibly frustrating watching the events unfolding in Ukraine without being able to offer direct support. I hope our shit-show of a government can find their way out of the oligarchs' pockets long enough to offer refuge to those being displaced by Putin's pathetic attempt to feel a few inches taller.
Yes yes!
Full solidarity with ordinary brave Ukrainians AND Russians who are against the poisonous gnome.
I’m hoping the Russian people will have had enough of Putin and certainly no appetite for nuclear war which he’s now threatening, it would be amazing to see the army and the people turn on him in huge numbers.
Praying here for peace and let’s hope this brings nations closer together rather than driving us apart.
Also share your sentiments about our sham of a government that has not only take bungs from Russian and Chinese governments and lined their pockets turning them into lapdogs at the beck and call of Putins flunkies/oligarchs.
Fuck them and fuck him. Salute!

Good point, Tony888, I'm quite sure the vast majority of Russian citizens want no part of this war. Hopefully these events will prompt them to seek uncensored news that hasn't been tailor-made to keep Putin in power. Change so often comes from within - remember Ceacescu?
I am old enough to remember him and his vile regime. One for the old timers there!!
Sending support and love to ordinary Ukrainians and Russians ❤️

Word. Our government are truly pathetic,but we knew that already.
Pretty ashamed to be English right about now.
Pretty ashamed to be English right about now.
Agree in the sense we ain’t doing enough (the gov/politicians), I heard today that U.K. has sent over the anti aircraft launchers, if this is true it’s great news as it could help stop them weak bastards who drop bombs on citys full of children and innocent people… obviously we know that our boys cannot directly get involved for the same reasons nato won’t… but if the crazy madness continues we may eventually see it more happen from our gov and others… it kind of seems like no way back for Putin now, I don’t think he will ever give up seeing as he will face war crimes now. And he is hateful so ww3 looks set
Anyways I agree with all points here. What a disgrace to the world this tyrant and all others who do the same in other parts of the world are! No conscience or heart.
Anyways I agree with all points here. What a disgrace to the world this tyrant and all others who do the same in other parts of the world are! No conscience or heart.
I agree re the government being pathetic, which is probably too kind but it’s very important to remember that only a few weeks back we were sending weaponry but we weren’t allowed in German airspace to deliver them so we’ve definitely done the right thing in some aspects.
Totally agree. Watching ordinary people on the border countries holding placards showing how many people they can take into their homes brings tears to my eyes. Meanwhile the UK Is requesting information on individuals annual earnings. Jesus H Christ….
Putins days are numbered imho...the Russian peoples rebellion has begun...protests in many, many towns and cities becoming larger and more frequent...the Kremlin "dinosaurs" are in their final months of extinction...will democracy follow?...Maybe wishful thinking??
Here's hoping, for the sake of the Russian people. Putin has managed to drag Russia back to the 80s.
Yes,that's sadly true...are we not all pleased to have been born(or now live) in the UK,where even though our democracy sometimes is far from perfect,it is thankfully still a free and democratic country with all that entails.

Not in my name!
Not in my name!
Somebody asked me recently why the Bud Wiser logo incorporates the Russian flag? 'Holy s***', I exclaimed, and immediately jumped online to check if that was the case. Fortunately the Ruskie flag is ordered white, blue then red. Still, a little too close for comfort, given what that obnoxious, short-arsed, goblin has been up to. Just to make sure nobody thinks I'm a Putinite, I attach the inspiration for the BW logo✌️

Transaxe costs
Transaxe costs
I've been selling for a wee while on LB now, and would like to get my Transaxe costs down to the 5.85% fee. Could someone advise me on what code for which token I need to use in my Transaxe account to achieve this? Cheers, and good health.
its if you brought the client in from a referral link when they registered for little biggy. everything you do with them is at 5.85% instead of 9.85%. you also get a referral fee every time they buy with someone else kitty.

Convection vapourisers
Convection vapourisers
I'm thinking of upgrading my vapouriser and would love to hear what models my fellow Buddies would recommend. Budget is £100 and it needs to be convection. Any advice much appreciated.
Crater 420 from Amazon £90. Never used the plastic mouth piece that comes with it as I bought the glass one separately. Middle temps are 180 and 190 deg C which is spot on for herb. You get around 7-8 five min sessions out of a full charge. Totally portable. Easy to clean - alcohol wipes and pipe cleaners. Had mine since March and it is a great piece of kit. I also wanted convection only and this has been a treat to use
Looks nice. Found one on eBay for £65 new, might just have to treat myself. Cheers.
I'm selling a crater 420 for £50. Bought from Amazon August 2021 for my wife but she says it makes her cough, so it's like new & for sale. Also got the glass mouthpiece.
Let me know if interested. I can sell direct or through eBay.

My choice is probably going to come down aesthetics and the Xmax V3 looks pretty damn sleek and compact. Cheers for the links.
I have 20 plus vapes in the under £100 section at the moment
The xmax is the one I recommend to anyone who wants a simple turn on and produce clouds machine
👍
Oh and it does feel surprisingly premium

Jesus! 20? That's some fine dedication to the pursuit of relaxation. I've just bought a Wolkencraft FX Mini Pro, and it's damn good. There are so many decent convection vape options out there, but ultimately I was swayed by her good looks.
I have the smono version of that 👍 tis a cracking vape and should treat you well
Loads of accessories if you look for potv or fury 2 parts they all.fit ☺️

Hi, I’ve got a dynavape which suits me fine, however want something a little more discreet when I’m out.
Recently been looking at these V the Tinymight, which is above my budget at the moment.
Anyone able to compare or recommend one similar?

Went for the Wolkenkraft fx mini. Got the bubbler with it too but yet to try.
Hard to believe the build quality of these for the price.
Perfect combination with a Dynavape.
Impessed! gets you well baked👍

Did you get the wood effect version? Either way, it's a cracking little design, and the bubbler does a good job at taking the edge off herbs that aren't too tasty.
No Bud, I went for the midnight blue one, very discreet. Looking forward to trying the bubbler at the weekend.
Yup, though it's messier and more work than flower.
Dynavap (click on my name for a post on how inset mine up for hash)
Vapman are my two top hash vapes
Hash is harder to vape due to hot air not passing through it like flower so you find pure convection vapes can struggle to get enough heat in.
Any convection vape where you can use a basket screen works as well as you can sandwich hash in between two baskets providing the vape has enough.va va voom 😉

No worries, I'm happy to answer any questions on the vapes I own or how I use them. I smoked for 30 years so have used the vape side of things to replace the rituals there I miss.

It's been fun getting to know the good folk on LB over the past few months as I dip my toe into the world of online vending. For those who have used Bud Wiser 53 so far, I thank you for your custom. My new batch should be ready very soon, so I hope to tempt more of you with excellent quality home-grown weed at very reasonable prices. Stay safe, one and all. BW53
Happy New a year dude! 🥳

Not sure that’s true generally speaking…a major incentive for legalisation is taxation. Add the business costs on and prices rocket versus the Street. It’s why the Street doesn’t go out of business following legalisation- it’s so much cheaper! (Plus, my Canadian friends insist the quality on the Street is much better- go figure!)…
Mary Jane will never be legalised in the UK with Tories in charge. Which is particularly irritating when they're probably snorting coke off the marble-topped counters in the Westminster toilets. I'm just guessing, but I wouldn't be surprised.

Netflix & Amazon
Netflix & Amazon
Is it just me, or are the vast majority of films being churned out as exclusives for the big streaming services ill-conceived garbage?
Nothing good comes out of 99% of the content that these scam services churn out, but it is serving it's purpose very well in distracting the overwhelming majority of people from daily political corruption and other atrocities like medical tyranny
not only that but most of the stuff on there is bombarded with 'subtle' subliminal messaging that further sways the consumers already brainwashed mindset especially when it comes to things like politics
My only use for Netflix and scamazon is a sort of litmus test to see if a person you are talking to is an idiot
We live in a world where money is always being spent on the wrong things, in these countries with vast wealth, just look at how much some companies are spending on making these completely unnecessary films some of them costing over £300 million each to make, if they were permitted to, they would spend a billion on these useless films...
THINK of what that money could be used for, to educate, to help people, to improve not just the happiness of people, but their economic standing and equality, also maybe help out homeless people or starving people? instead these billions of dollars get spent on "entertainment" for heavily sheltered braindead first world egotistical wankers so they can sit on their fat unhealthy arses consuming these brainwashing films whilst stuffing their face with fast food and other products they've been brainwashed into consuming
i could easily carry on but i'll leave it, lol.

Most of the content isn't even made for the paying public. The product placement tells me it exists for advertisers first, public second. As for Bezos, he needs to take a leaf out of his ex's book and start giving to those who need it. He should give up on his infantile dreams about space.
Did anyone see the horrifying report on the Amazon workers in the USA who were forced to work in the hurricane, they were killed. Amazon made it a requirement that they weren’t allowed to use their personal mobiles….

Favourite 2 all time full album’s you listened to over and over again
I’ll start Dr Dre 2001 and Bob Marley and the wailers.
Wu Tang Clan - Enter the Wu Tang (managed to see them in NYC for Rock The Bells 2010 performing the whole album was a dream comes true) and the second best album for me would be Gang Starr - Moment of Truth
finally someone said Blue Lines. It's odd because in a lot of ways musically I don't rate it highly, it's kind of clumsy in parts, some of the ideas are underdeveloped, some of it almost makes me cringe. But there was just something so special about that time and the sound felt so new and yet familiar. Even though their later stuff is "better" Blue Lines has such a permananet special place in my heart.
Prodigy - Music For Jilted Generation
Leftfield - Leftism
Could list plenty but these 2 are special 😎🥳🤯👽

Leftism is immense. It's been a while, I'm gonna have to fish it out the old collection.
Time well spent. As for The Prodigy, I saw them at Glasto in '95. They were flying high off the back of Music for the Jilted Generation. I vividly remember Keith (RIP) rolling onto the stage in a giant hamster ball. They were awesome. So much energy.
dark side by pink floyd and blonde by frank ocean. i absolutely rinse both year after year :)
Full albums I've actually listened to over and over are "The Wall" & "Graceland"
Really love listening to Graceland on a fresh sativa high)
Really love listening to Graceland on a fresh sativa high)
Graceland brings back memories of my mum blasting that album most days when I was a kid
That's how I first heard it too when my mums friend got them the album back in the early 80s)
Tom Waits "Blue Valentine", Ry Cooder "Bop Till You Drop" - honourable mention to Joni Mitchell "Blue", Janis Joplin "Pearl", David Crosby "If I Could Only Remember My Name", and a gazillion others...
I know I’m cheating but I got
Outkast- Aquemini (and stankonia)
Fugees - The Score
Jay Z - The Blueprint
Kanye - MBDTF
Nas- Illmatic

If you don’t know…wake up! 💯❤️
I’m a grump about Ill Communication. It has some great tracks on it. But the jazz filler does nothing for me.
What's going on- Marvin Gaye..almost goes as a mix album the way the songs blend into one another. So relevant to today too.
Another I've played to death over the years is Joni Mitchell- Blue. Just a sublimely chilled album.
Many more, but these two I think I have probably played the most in my lifetime so far

Since my favourite 2 have already been picked by loads of people, I'll go for...
Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti
Portishead - Dummy
Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti
Portishead - Dummy
I can safely say that Appetite for Destruction is the album I've listened to the most. Carousel by Subcircus has had well over 20 years love from me as well
Dark Side of the Moon has got to be my first pick. Millionaires by James is great when you've got some sativa running through your system.
The b-side of the sit down single is Live at the Manchester Gmex. On headphones is still the best crowd singing of a song to date.
Never heard Dub Side of the Moon until today- bloody great👍- so big thanks for the heads up!!!
Wow!!!! Just WOW!
Dubside of the moon 🌙
Amazing..... how this has escaped me is beyond me 🤷♂️ I love darkside that much I have the prism tattood on my chest

2 is incredibly difficult, and I can't be the only one with eclectic tastes and a butterfly mind where these will all change regularly anyway. So I'll go with:
Ash - 1977
and
Kent - Hagnesta Hill (available in English and Swedish, so surely I get to choose both?)

That's so cool! Is this weird? The most unbelievably amazing band that almost no-one has ever heard of, or so it seems. They filled stadia in Scandinavia.
"The Dark Side of the Moon" by Pink Floyd: Released in 1973, this album is considered a masterpiece and one of the greatest progressive rock albums of all time. It features a conceptually unified theme and explores various philosophical and existential topics. Tracks like "Money," "Time," and "Us and Them" are widely loved.
"Thriller" by Michael Jackson: Released in 1982, "Thriller" is the best-selling album of all time and a cultural phenomenon. It revolutionized pop music, blending various genres and delivering iconic hits such as "Billie Jean," "Beat It," and the title track "Thriller."

Muse - Absolution( regardless if you like the band the story of the end of the world from start to end is amazing!)
Nirvana - Unplugged in New York

Dark Side of the Moon, best album ever, bar none. 50 years old this year, same as me!
950 weeks on Billboard 200 chart! 750 of them consecutive!!
Lee 'Scratch" Perry - Open the Gate. Sadly deleted and expensive to buy, but can be downloaded online. 2 CDs of heavyweight 12". Jimmy Cliff got me listening to reggae, this album burnt it into my soul.

Riding with the king - Clapton and BB King
We're new here - Jamie xx and Gil Scott-Heron

So glad someone has shouted out Jamie xx, amazingly talented music producer the first album with him and his sister The Xx I can’t even guess how many times I’ve listened to it, song 1 known as intro is a work of art. I’m gutted they or he have released so little but sadly he probably earns more producing for other artists who are more mainstream?
Not heard of your other suggestions but will check them out based on your clearly good taste !

There are loads of full albums I’ll listen to…naming just two, well the two most recent ones that spring to mind for me Acid Bath-when the kite string pops and Oasis - definitely maybe not a bad track on either one.
My picks:
The Velvet Underground & Nico - just a classic album. Spaceman 3 "The Perfect Prescription" with an honorable mention for Ode to Street Hassle

Its an absolute epic album. That bit in Fountain and Fairfax where Happy Chichester's piano wraps around Barb's cello is heaven. Its as good an album as Black Love for sure, some fans prefer it but BL is the GOAT.
Script of the Bridge by The Chameleons. Some friends told me they would bury the album with me, I'd go to sleep listening to it.
Scary Monsters by Bowie, time of life thing for me 'Teenage Wildlife'.

Swamp Thing from Strange Times is another brilliant song.

Hi Mate, Got 'Script of the bridge' playing again this weekend. The album seems more poignant than ever.
Light up and have a good weekend.

Hey bud, I'm well thanks and intend to have a good weekend, it's my bday on Monday so have started early with some very nice and mood lifting Cap Junky, then for some stand up comedy me thinks.
Script of the Bridge will always be applicable to me. Finding some albums feels like finding treasure and it's one of those albums, as is From the lions mouth by The Sound, which if you haven't heard I profoundly recommend. Have a good'n mate and tell me, what are you smoking on matey and have you chonged anything recently with strong euphoric/giggly affects?

Hi Mr, Really liked that album, how did I miss that? Do you like 'sad lovers and giants' and 'and also the trees' ?
Never heard of either band before this shout. I listened to Epic Garden Music this morning on a hike and it's fantastic love the use of the keyboard and you can really hear early elements of shoegaze taking shape on tracks like "Lope" and "ART".. This is a very good band crisp.. Try listening to Soul Mining and Dusk by The The and tell me what you think. Anyway stay cool compadre.
dEUS The Ideal Crash and Pretty Hate Machine NIN. Never tire of those two... There are many more but these two popped out my cheesebox first.
Hard to pick just 2, and I see a nearly all male list below...so:
Baduizm - Erykah Badu

Cheap Thrills - Janis Joplin with Big Brother and the Holding Company. Aqualung - Jethro Tull. Both are extraordinary (to me, anyway) with a good dose of THC.
Just 2 …thats tricky!!

Reading the comments, we’re such a bunch of mixed people here haha (GOOD) I think I saw every genre. I don’t really have 1 album I like but it’s one song from a few if you get me.
For me it's got to be lupe fiasco lasers album deluxe edition. And Hopsin No shame album. Can listen to every song on both and never get bored

37% of Americans Want To Secede
this map shows those who would rather break into regional groups
thats nation wide when you look at the south (i understand they are all thats needed to get things cooking) its 66%
OK but when you look at non-english speakers that might have heard this as "succeed" then the american dream is still alive!

I fear ill health is wishful thinking. Looks like he's spent a bundle on plastic surgery to me. That said, it's probably better for a lot of people if…
That ain't filler. The man appears to be on a fairly big dose of steroids. I'd imagine he's quite unwell and probably not long for this world.
If he hasn’t got long, this makes him very dangerous. Coupled with the fact a lot of the drugs elderly take effect the mind without them knowing.

If only we could “fast forward to the bit where he shoots himself in the bunker”…..followed by eternal damnation in the flames of Hell fire with a red hot pitchfork up his bum hole.

Ukraine is too kind to fight Russia for the USA/West.

America want this war. Remember it was Biden and Bojo that pulled Zelensky away from peace talks back in 2022
The people are waking up, this is a sick thread, nato wants war not putin.
they forced putins hand to invade ukraine.
9/11 was an inside job and the vaccine wasnt a vaccine.
i could go on but whatever, chemtrails suck too.

I find it fascinating that governments happily admit to chemtrails be used aswell as geoengineering yet it's still called a conspiracy. The war in Ukraine can go back to 2008 when they first stated their intention to join Nato. Putin reiterated then how that would unfold so we pushed the button again in 2014. Remember what's good for goose is good for the gander. If the US didn't like missiles in Cuba, why would we expect Russia wouldn't feel hard done by expanding east constantly
See, I hear that, but people only question what they don't agree with, or in the case of some people, what they're told not to agree with.
What security guarantees did Russia offer Ukraine though? You must know that Ukraine was rightfully concerned in 2008, Russia had occupied Abkhazia and South Ossetia in Georgia, who was to be next?
Ultimately, nobody but the arms manufacturers want war, but Ukraine cant surrender without losing their identity and half their lands. Their future is fucked. Not that anyone that supports Russia even gives a flying fuck about that.

The Minsk agreements seemed fair to me . Crimea has always been Russian and the Donbas wanted independence but would rather ally with Russia than the West . A lot of Ukrainians already considered themselves Russian , so they wouldn't lose their culture .
It's going to be a mess and your entirely right in what you say about arms dealers being the only profiteers of war.
I only see it ending with either Ukraine giving up the 4 Oblasts and agreeing to never join Nato or.. Russia surrender due to it escalating and somehow we avoid nuclear catastrophe. Both choices are so wide apart im not sure what could make up the middle ground.

If Ukraine was to surrender their lands, then I'd say only if they were entered into NATO, which enables their future security, and the lands would need to be demilitarised.
Tell ye what, if time was reversed and we were being invaded or attacked by a foreign power, I damn well hope there will be nations that would support us.
There is fuck all to defend with Russia in invading Ukraine, but 'Merica bad, lets not question things and support Russia.

I love America . They're our cultural and genetic relatives after all , but the globalists have steered America in the wrong direction .
The Ukraine was bombing the Donbas for eight years before Putin came to their aid and invaded . Many of them were happy for the help . Just like you would be if someone was bombing you for eight years .
I'm very much on the side of the Anglo-sphere but right is right and we never should have attacked the Donbas . We started this war and used Ukraine as the proxy . They should never have fought Russia .

That's a fed up topic honestly.
No one should wish anyone death. All I can say is that I dont trust any governments at all, let it be Russia,China or USA/Nato member countries. All of these govs are doing shady things, acting in their own aswell as corporate interests. Not trying to hate, but if you wanna see putin dead you should also wanna see many other international leaders/presidents dead. All I can say that I condone wishing anyone a tragic or painful death.

he needs to show his comrades that he isn't bunkered this means he is looking at regular strategy meetings in person with people easier to follow. his makeup and camera crew are all regulars and dont have a lot of security around them normally.
Can’t believe someone hasn’t shot/ poisoned the evil cunt tbh. (They like a bit of poison do the Russians)
Trouble is he would just be replaced by another one,cut from the same cloth I fear. Still can’t believe after all we went thru with covid, his first response afterwards was fucking war! He is the very definition of little man syndrome. 😡

Putin is considered a moderate in Russia . There are far worse people waiting to take his place .
The war had actually been going on for eight years before Russia invaded .
We sent our proxies to bomb the Donbas . Putin tried diplomacy for eight year . There were two peace deals which the West broke . We goaded Russia until they had no choice .

Putin is the only adult in the room right now . While our Western leaders are all desperate to start ww3 , he is showing restraint .
If Putin was assassinated , someone far worse would take his place . In Russia he's considered a moderate .
Thank God for Putin . May him and Donald find an agreeable solution . And lets hope the Western globalists don't kill us all before then .

Worst song ever? And why... GO!
Or Octopuses Garden. Stick to yer shit drummin', Ringo.
Anything by Elton John fucking hate the cunt and his music, my wife ruined my Xmas day few years back by telling me a gay singer i didnt like had died.
I was so exited then she told me it was George Michael and i was gutted.
I was so exited then she told me it was George Michael and i was gutted.
and i feel better about myself, you know plotting his murder and all. george michael on the other hand was a genius and worth a quickie in the facility of his choosing
Hahahaha, I actually like Elton, well as much as a straight man can but that made me laugh man.
Tiny Dancer and Rocket Man are OK songs. Other than that Elton John is soooooo overrated.
Fairground simply red, gives me violent thoughts of grabbing mick by his flowing red curls and bouncing his head of every hard surface available. Total pissflap
Yeah anything by Simply Red can give me Forrest Whittaker eye but Fairground is especially bad
And imagine being called Eileen when it came on down the pub back in the day…. Poor cow needed 3 packs of baby wipes.
Too many but Will Smith - Wild Wild West has got to be up there surely. It’s like some record execs put a gun to his head and said ‘Dance bitch!’
Do you think they did it again to willow ? I whip my hair even for a 13 year old was fucking awful
that movie had so much going for it and they still blew it, would make a better series than a lot of shit
Nothing Compares to You by Sinead Depressing Cunt O'Connor that song has the warmth and charm of a dead Rat lying next to a used Tampon.
That Barbie girl tune, need I say why! Lol
And the “grandma I love you” tune, showing my age! Lol
And the “grandma I love you” tune, showing my age! Lol
Ok you win… The grandma I love you song was fucking horrendous, then they felt the need to create the sequel… Grandpa I love you… I mean we got the message the first time.
Lol. She is a liar too, when that Leo chap drowned in the ice, his heart certainly didn’t go on….
Watch this with your sound on, and I think you will agree no further explanation is required.
Bruno Mars.
"When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are"
My question is - how many faces did he previously change to suit his needs. He's amazed he found someone who's face doesn't need rearranging. This man is a psycho folks.

Keane - Bedshaped.
Stupid, depressing lyrics that make no sense at all.
Bedshaped? That'll be a bed then...
I hate it because it reminds me of the two weeks I spent crawling around a 20 inch deep subfloor void for 8 hours a day, doing timber treatments on a huge old house.
That shit was on the radio every 20 mins for the whole time we were there.
Scarred me 🙉

If you really want a contender for worst song, you need to listen to Taylor Swift Gorgeous. The song composition and the lyrics seem like they were written by a child.
Also majority of her songs. She did a cover of September by earth wind and fire that haunts me... She turned funk into folk what the actual fuck.
hahaha.. funny to see Zeppelin here because it did occur to me too . Seems like everybody has to adore their music :P
I forgot all about this,Hey plenty of Zepp stuff is fine but that song really gets my goat the first time i heard it i never knew who it was my missus had been putting cd's in the laptop and they kept getting synched to my ipod it came on random one day and i just went wtf is this shit before looking who it was, it sounds to me like a holiday camp band doing reggae.
All musicians steal mate and say they were inspired. A lot of that era were the same. Keith Richards does it. Don’t think that takes away from them as musicians.
Cool, mine too. Sometimes I feel like the great Alan in your photo speaking to younger people. AHA. I was sick with laughter when he got hit with a cow. Steve coogans characters are genius. All the way back to the calf family
as a punk i was always compelled to hate led zep, it was a mistake, i still hate most classic rock still (with merit now) but these guys were really in a class by themselves.
I’m too nice to downvote as maybe that’s how you feel but seriously? The band who gave us in my time of dying can never be fuckin awful.

Personally cities are the most crowded and loneliest places on earth. Small undeveloped villages have imo happier more content folk;)
probably true but villagers are very much self selected. its easier to leave a lot of these places than stay.
I've experienced alienation and isolation in cities, but on the other hand I grew up in a coveted rural part of the UK and it now feels like a retirement home for those who can arbitrage their metro area homes and live off fat pensions here. It's increasingly like suburbia down to the aesthetic of the houses, increased prevalence of out of town shopping and total car dependence to do anything. Folks from major cities and the South East fall in love with the idea of rural England from their holidays, then transform it into a copy of the suburbs that they fled from. Access to nature aside, it's pretty dull and has very few work and social opportunities so I can't wait to move back to the city personally.
Munich is a great place to visit. Granted, I haven't lived there, but it's clean, friendly, multi-cultural and there's plenty to do. Oh, and the beer is tops.
super vibe, fun yet safe enough for small kids to walk around, friendly but shit gets done right.
No sure I’d call it a Big City but of all the cities I’ve been to and that’s many, I’d say Copenhagen is the one I’d like to live, it’s no metropolis but it’s just incredible.
I think the UN will say that as I don’t think they really care that much about our “quality of life”. I don’t think a city can ever provide full quality due to noise and light pollution. We need nature..we need quiet..we need to dark in order to reset ..just my two cents anyway ;)
There are only 33 cities ranked “mega” in the world, even London doesn’t qualify and neither do most European capitals. Generally they are shithole Chinese & Indian with over 10m population.
My pick without a doubt however would be Buenos Aires..👍👍

Buenos Aires is lovely, always planned to go back but it's such a long way away!
Flew direct from BA to Auckland, New Zealand, now that was a long flight...
Flat Earthers claim the flight doesn't actually exist as it disproves their map, but I can assure them it does. It's bloody long and pretty scary if you consider there's no land mass anywhere near the flight path for like 13 hours, except Antarctica, which isn't an ideal place to land in an emergency! Haha.
Anyway yeah, BA is beautiful.💖
They say that Melbourne is supposedly the best city for quality of life, but having been there I suspect the only people that are voting for that city as No.1, are the ones that have never left it.
Just my 2p though.
Cheers BB 😊👍🍻

such different cities, melbourne is english and has its ass nicely tightened up. ba is an italian/spanish romance.
I'd advise you don't call any Melburnian "English". They're not too keen on us Brits.
Modern Argentina as a whole is a melting pot of cultures, German being one, (for various unscrupulous reasons).
But yes I agree, Buenos Aires is the so called 'Paris' of South America. The European influence is everywhere.
Funnily enough I saw a Bulldog being walked in a park in BA. 😂

You probably stepped on it's shit if you visited more than 5 years ago. Thank god they've cleaned things up quite a bit.
I went to Australia for a ‘year’ well meant to be a year, came back home after 2 months, just didn’t get the appeal at all. Wasn’t what I’d call eye opening or life changing in anyway.
It's basically a history-less, hot UK with dangerous animals and Scandi standards of living.
paris, tokyo, shanghai, you should be so lucky.
Big cities...Yuk.... best city is a city of green my friends.

BEST ACTIVITY WHILE STONED
What your favourite activity and place while stoned ?? Mountains, football, dancing , films,running or four poster bed 😵💫
Love running on edibles. If you’ve ever run sober and experienced a ‘runners high’ - kind of like being in flow state 100% in the present moment, it’s a good feeling anyway. It’s actually the endocanniboid system kicking in, so if you get a little buzz on before running it times it by 100 and feels fantastic, like I can move my consciousness into my legs almost. Can feel it working on inflammation too during and after. Works similar with lifting too. Anyone that exercises, if you can do it safely high it’s worth trying, opened up discovering a whole new way of being high for me that I wish I’d discovered earlier! Weed making people lazy is 100% a myth down to how you approach getting high.
Disclaimer: I’m not a scientist and I also smoke alotta weed so the above science might be completely made up.
Disclaimer: I’m not a scientist and I also smoke alotta weed so the above science might be completely made up.
Totally a myth!! Weed doesn’t make people lazy at all. And weed doesn’t make you want to stay indoors all the time either - that’s a personal choice, as well as based on safety of course. Some people might not agree, but weed doesn’t affect the memory either. What really causes memory loss is stress and trauma.. but totally recoverable too.
In my experience, it definitely effects my memory, but it’s more to do with my hierarchy of priorities when I’m stoned. In other words, I get easily distracted from the mundane when faced by shiny things.
Lol no I agree I never used to excercise much at all. but Mtb on the trails and tracks about here high is the best ever it definitely make you more focused most of time 😂
Yeah I'm not that big on "organised" exercise but I love to get out on the trails on the MTB. If I'm high then I definitely go quite a bit slower, just taking in the scenery. Some nice trails & woods in my area.
Mtb for sure. Huge forest nearby get high go night riding. Get a high lumen light strap it on away you go🌬 forest trails are so different at night and you bump into the odd longhorn to give you a little fright here and there👍🤛
Night riding is definitely something I need to do more often. It's amazing just how different the whole landscape is in the dark & definitely more hazards. No Longhorns near me tho.. 😁 👍🤛
Not got the minerals for mountain biking, pretty popular where I am though. Bet doing it high is intense as balls
Interesting! Love a bit of MTB but never tried it while high as I wasn’t sure how it would go. Might have to give it a try this week. What’s everyone smoking before a ride then?
I tend to smoke 💨💨whatever I have if riding especially if out on my own totally zone in to the riding experience 🤗😂
Just don’t go overboard ✌️
Just don’t go overboard ✌️
Still good experiments tho ?
If scientists can get paid for finding out frogs explode @ 210 for 30 min in your air fryer I’m sure we can get a go fund you going lol 😂

Hands down has to be with good friends, talking shit and just having a right laugh and I mean friends friends people you know and trust 100% getting absolutely torn apart (in a good way that only friends like that get away with) if you have that then if I’m honest getting high anywhere is perfect.
I’m lucky to live near the coast so ma dogs 🐕 beach! 20 pit stop take it all in and just realise it’s all first world 🌎 problems (the amount of shit I’ve sorted over the years high Af just giving yourself that time but still high of course)
And also in my top 3 is got to be the inappropriate high! Something stupid like and this never happened but just say a formal gathering like a wedding or important dinner, kids school show and in your head your thinking 🤔 fuck this I know what can make this situation better.
Your sitting next to some random at a wedding ripping in 97% vape while he’s trying to make small talk, your trying to be polite but your missies is giving you that are you fucking for real 😳 look lol

Hahahaha. Snap. School run and the wedding. Made the food taste banging and the music was fire and the fire eater was a surprise the decor was godfather/dictator chic/new money/versace. It was insane. It was all a blur, I still don't know what was real.
I like to get super high on chocolate bars mixed with mushrooms and Moroccan hash end go to the National Forest and take pics of rocks with faces and designs I "see" in the stone.
Combine 3 with cosplay, pop tarts but of Alf/ mork & mindy playing in the back! sorted lol
You know I’m joking bigbum lol
You know I’m joking bigbum lol
Don’t man I’ve been enjoying my Monday and to high for this shit lol just unintentionally had an image of someone dressed as Alf pumping someone dressed as Mindy 🤦♂️ Think 🤔 I’ll leave the vape a bit the now lol
Vape away buddy😎🌬🤣 remember to keep hydrated 🫵🍀 blowing smoke in fly’s faces hoping they will fck off and crash out somewhere 🤣🤣🤣 lol not really 🤔
Spending too much time on here out the sun! Wishing my bank account to magically increase to pay for what's in my cart
Vr porn on ma couch wae the doors shut so the weans don't catch me .just wish the wife would though 😕
I've been high for over 15 years now so there's not much I don't enjoy high, I certainly prefer high to sober and anyway some things that stick out as most enjoyable. Wondering around on clear nights, listening to music, kayaking/water sports, playing with dogs/animals.
If it's a nice day then outside for a wander in the countryside for sure. Or a good bike ride. Otherwise some good Sci-Fi or Music and chill. Four poster bed can be fun too 😝
I really enjoy going out for a hike, this time of year I go searching for mushrooms not to eat just to find.
I do nature photography. And being stoned makes the long waiting much nicer. I absorb myself into the natural world. That and sex! 😂
Snorkeling over a tropical coral reef full of fish and sea life is hands down one of the best things to do stoned.
Now the munros ye canny beat!!
What a reward when you get to the top if it’s a clear day and you have a few ready rolled time to get the jetboil out and get yourself a brew and sit back and enjoy some of the best views in the world..

BTW, don’t pass the wee hills by. I’d go up the cobbler any day of the week and twice on a Sunday rather than drag my arse up that big bing up Glen Shee. Cairn well, I think?
Then there’s the Assynt hills. There are few Munros as fine as Quinaig or Suilven. ❤️❤️❤️

Star-gazing in my garden on a warm summer's night with a big bag of Cadbury's giant chocolate buttons close to hand. Don't chew! Just pop one on my tongue and let it melt into my Indica-addled senses. Or, alternatively, watching a good comedy with like-minded friends. Recently watched Alpha Papa after a sesh - bloody hilarious!
Joints: Music and Drive countryside, make us wanna connect with nature. Lately been taking drives to Drone Fly zones, get hight and put flying glasses on and just enjoy the view from the drones perspective :))
Edibles : just go swimming and spa :)) pure laziness
Bong: Cancel all meetings , get into cosy sofa and watch documentaries with a blanked out face , LoL. It could be most boring documentary to watch when sober, but when hit the double hitter bong - you deep literally everything is been said :)))

Getting creative with music. After smoking some good sativa, I love to stay up all night playing the synthesizer. I can get lost in it for hours!
Music! whether in my front room or live music in a big field - enhances the enjoyment for me everytime. Perfect.

Essentially, it's what humanity would become once a critical level of technological progress has been made, beyond which we can no longer be considered entirely "human."
It doesn't mean a world with no humans, it means a change in definition of what a human is.

There's a 1989 Japanese horror film called Tetsuo that ties in with this description. It's about a chap who starts grafting pieces of metal onto his body. Freaky fucked-up stuff.
It's a bit vague if you ask me because it means *everything* that comes after us: AI, cyborgs, augmented humans and god knows what else. I prefer "trans-humanism" which implies people transcending the human body.
Post Humanism means information tech based evolution whereas transhumanism means the "everything"
If an individual has a cranial implant to reduce epileptic fits, have they entered a Post Humanist phase?
That's a lot like the question "When is the Singularity?" the moment that artificial intelligence passes humans'. A lot of people laughed at Kurzweil's predictions for this happening in the 2020s, but with all the progress in the last year and the exponential curve this is following he might be right.
It might be easier to say its coming than it's here. If you work as an uber driver or a stock trader you are already taking orders from an a.i. entity much smarter than you.
Post humanism hahah... maybe parasitism? As a species we are already doing it.
Btw. Im down only for analogue transhumanism in any case.

In essence it is man being puppeted by Satan into trying to eradicate God. To replace God with a counterfeit. It is the attempt at justifying what was done in the Garden of Eden and fulfilling Satans promise that 'ye will be as Gods'.
I would argue we are already in a post-humanist world, and have been for some time, with the evolution of media, pointedly the internet, on group mentality, opinion and aligning of thought. All through intense, persistent and unrelenting social pressure, various political propagandas and essentially, marketing.
The coagulation of collective conscious intentions via the internet, dispersing opinion, values and philosophies, dispenses of the opinion forming skills of those exposed to it more and more as generations turn over. This has happened in stages since the introduction of the web and I believe can be prevalently seen in the west. In particular, in political states which lean more towards capitalism, as this effectively 'supercharges' the evolution of these mass influences.
We as humans are physically not really evolving any more, Darwinism isn't exactly hitting the spot for us, take a walk through any small town centre and I'm sure you'll find it hard to disagree (We do still hold the record as the best long distance land animal though if I'm not mistaken). We do however evolve behaviourally at an astronomical scale when compared to other species.
Whether the invocation of an effective 'hive mind' on our selves causes us to enter a state of 'post' humanism is open to debate of course, but i think on the Richter scale of change it scores rather high.
Much like me, I am also very high.

Can someone tell me why Americans think guns are the definition of freedom?
Gandhi would agree.
Can someone tell me why Americans think guns are the definition of freedom?
Americans are happy to devote decades of their lives to supporting an overseas war machine as they gobble up jingoistic bullshit in their media.
They are taxed and regulated as mush as socialist countries but get little benefits in return, all the while being spied on to a standard that would make the Gestapo proud.
They are fine with all of this damage to their liberty as long as they keep their guns, is this just some kind of penis fixation?

I don't expect many to understand, and it's not something you can relate to unless you've walked a similar path,but... during my traveling work days, I experienced more than once the need to carry a firearm.
permitted to carry concealed, allowed me the chance to go back home and see my family again.
you are entitled free speech and your freedom of views, just remember, the crime or bad folks don't follow ANY rules and could care less about your politics. take away the good man's right to protect himself, and become their next target, as security is just a word.
(understand that police have NO obigation to protect you or your family, they strictly uphold the law...)

You make a fine point but the statistics don’t lie. A developed country shouldn’t be 4th on a list with these others.

Because freedom is only delivered through the end of a gun (unfortunately)
And if you don’t have a gun someone with a gun will take your freedom away
The only part of history you can guarantee is true freedom comes at the end of a sword/gun

i don't think the american colonies outgunned england and i'm sure that's not how it went down in india or in the 1990s in eastern europe.
freedom is obtained through will and persistence like a lot of things around this earth.
freedom is obtained through will and persistence like a lot of things around this earth.
This is it, no tyrannical regime, dictator, kings or queens taking the piss were ever overthrown through mediation and peaceful actions, fire meets fire literally.
I'll go with the penis fixation. I don't own a gun - don't want one - guns are for killing. It's the second amendment in the American Bible, er, "Bill of Rights". Funny thing is that the pro-life people are usually pro-gun. Just doesn't make sense.
Guns do not kill... the person using it KILLS... I use them to kill clay pigeons. and just imagine it's someone i hate. lol ;)
By that reasoning the murder rate in the likes of El Salvador, Honduras etc. is purely down to the types of people that live there and not to the availability of guns. Obviously incorrect. You need someone willing to kill AND a gun to shoot someone dead.
I am not black but I am a 6'5' 300+ pound white mail. when I get out of my car I have yet seen my public servent have his on his gun when he see's me. I have never been shot , but I have been scared you never know when They might get scared and shoot. I am always as helpful and curtice I can makke cause I want to live and pissing of armed cops is not a healthy way to live. When they start treating you like shit , remember it will you a lot more then it will him.
Not saying you're fat but it's interesting that fat white dudes are credible rappers and also eyed by the police like black dudes.
No one can grant anyone rights, unless we agree that they can. Plenty folks will tell you you're not free unless unless always unless. You are free if you say you are. And you're not if you're not (royal you, not you you, but yes, also you 😜). You can be in a prison cell and be totally free. You can be a rich fat white cunt with acres of land and be completely imprisoned. It's in the mind. Sure, there may well be folks who contest your freedom, tell you you're not free, tell you you must this and you mustn't that if you want your "rights" intact. Nonsense. There, that's my two penny's (or cents, since the topic started in the US) spent and I'm skint for the night.
They didn’t. Our rights are God given and they are inalienable. The Bill of Rights protects them, or at least that’s how it’s supposed to work.
I’m not trying to start something here but I really want to understand how these rights are God given. Can you explain?
That’s ok. We are born free and we are born with certain God given rights, which are inalienable. This is just the way it is, like having a right to clean drinking water. We have the right to protect ourselves and our property. In the UK we still have the right to bear arms, but it has been hidden from us using legislation and obfuscation. Most people don’t understand that they are supposed to be free, so they put up with buffoons and paedo Freemasons dictating what they can and can’t do. This is one of the reasons why we pay income tax, which is unlawful but not illegal. The law is simple: No loss, no harm, no injury, no fraud.
Straw man stuff really opened my mind a good decade ago. The financial system is a good place to begin ones journey back into realising one was always free and one just didn't know it. Look at me, getting all queenly with the "ones". Did you say freemasons? 😉
Thanks for the response Camber I appreciate it but I’m still struggling with the God given bit. It’s not as if Moses came down from the mountain with a commandment saying Americans can have AR15s. I don’t mean to sound flippant I just don’t understand it
That’s ok, you’re not coming across as flippant.
“God given” is simply a term. It applies to atheists as well. Try to understand what it means to be born a free man. Eg: Monetisation of another man’s labour, without his consent, is slavery and it is unlawful. So why do we pay income tax? Did you consent to this?
The Founding Fathers were Christians, hence ‘God given’ Replace ‘God given’ with ‘pre-existing’

It was a rural place and hunting was very common. If you start from that perspective and then think of the government coming in and taking the guns away you start to understand.
Not being American but my take on it is simply history, god made men Samuel Colt made all men equal… You can hunt so can provide for yourself and your family, you can defend yourself and your family from threats, and I guess Homer said it best with ‘If You Don't Have A Gun, The King Of England Can Just Walk In Here And Shove You Around’ And for Americans it was true, it’s the reason they were free, the gun. I think the vast majority of people would agree if there were NO guns then the world would be a better place, BUT if bad guys, police, army have guns and you don’t then you’re simply powerless to anyones will. So if they have guns yeah I also want a gun.
I could be wrong but I’m sure the law to carry guns came into action as to kill Indians as white man was expanding in America.?
1. The Wild West is recent history in a young nation and was really really wild. Ditto the Civil War.
2. Hollywood is real. The good guy always shoots the bad guy. (With armed private citizens this is hardly ever the outcome, but who cares about reality?)
3. A lot of yanks are cunts?

The right to bear arms is to shoot the British, not the Indians. The theory is if everyone has guns, the government can't be oppressive and tyrannical. In practice, however, you just end up with gut-shot schoolkids. Guns are fun though tbf
They need their guns lots of wild animals running about on two legs out their nuts on prescription drugs with guns.
Vicious circle where the usual suspects make lots of cash from social chaos and scaring the population.
Man you would think we would be over all this crap by now smh

It’s a national identity! They feel they wouldn’t be Americans without the ability to kill somebody instantly.
It might be useful to differentiate the American people and American foreign policy. It seems you have conflated the two, whereas looking at the American people and domestic policy might yield better results. Guns are completely illegal in China and as we all know, China is one of the most liberated places to live on the planet! The second amendment in the US was created to provide a constitutional check on congressional power was as an auxiliary right, supporting the natural rights of self-defense and resistance to oppression. My family live in the USA and right now, gun ownership is anything from a penis fixation, it's security and peace of mind. I would rather get shot than stabbed any day of the week. Knife crime is equally as concerning in my book.
I'm hoping that you picked up the sarcasm in my 'China is liberated' comment. Reading it back, it doesn't come across too clearly.
hear ya my friend. thought i was doing the same ;) with your comment. i read it both ways (with/without sarcasm) I wouldn't criticise either. just own my private thoughts lol. stay as safe as this "Pandemic" will let you. Gaz
No, the founding fathers recognised the likely leadership America was likely to get would be those psychopaths you identify - a neolib psychopathic war machine at the helm. Without the right to bear arms, the citizens of the US would be unable to defend themselves against these psychos in control. Have you not noticed that the MSM (totally controlled by the same psychos) is relentlessly pushing for "gun control" - can you not see their agenda here? To disarm the citizens of the US would be to disarm all potential opposition to these globalist psychopaths in their pursuit of a NWO, hence the relentless media to demonize gun ownership. Are you are aware that you are statistically more likely to die from an unprovoked knife wound in London than you are to die from an "unprovoked" gun shooting in the US?

To our dear respected biggas and loyal customers after months of complexities and treatments I can confirm I am back better and hopefully healthier.
Firstly we would like to publicly announce how sorry we are to all our loyal biggas who have supported us throughout our journey on here.
We would like to say we are very sorry for having to up and pack our bags and leave without having said anything. Due to my health conditions I couldn’t foresee how long I was going to be on here and things deteriorated very fast whilst catching COVID-19 and being on dialysis machine at the same time.
During my 9 week stay in hospital our team couldn’t keep up the work of our crops (one disaster after another!) and therefore sales on here were paused immediately as the team had to prioritise all other aspects of business.
We have asked transaxe to sort all our biggas out and not leave them out of pocket! This was my only wish and couldn’t bear the thought of being called a scammer.
We would like to announce our come back and promise to have new array of stock and merchandise.
PS - Cannabis tea helps me through the night these days! 😜

long term effects you've experienced from cannabis?
Jesus! I'm glad I just get the munchies.

long term effects you've experienced from cannabis?
have you been been re-wired? i know i think much more openly than as a padawon and my control group of friends/haters is the opposite.
I have a few side affects
Intolerance to people's BS
An overwhelming desire to do fuck all
A lack of dreams (mine were crushed years ago anyway)
An unexplainable hatred of Ed Sheeran
And I have also found I still have the purile humour of a school boy
Otherwise I'm fine

True but my hatred goes beyond rational, to the point that half of my life is dedicated to plotting various methods of his demise. My favourite would be to not actually kill him but plant some kiddy porn on his PC, ruin him proper, Glitter styley
Long term use has a deleterious effect on my short term memory and cognitive function (although it seems to stabilise a few months in). I can mitigate some of those losses by taking CBD before bed, but it sucks because it also kills your buzz.
Also, not sure this is a side effect or a benefit, but I often have moments of insight and clarity while high. Things I'll bury away, procrastinate over, or stuff that simply exists in my subconscious will come to the fore. In some people that triggers paranoia and anxiety, but for me it's a catalyst to grab a pen and record my inner monologue.
That said, I'm due a huge break (starting March), as I have some writing jobs to do and I need to learn to drive because my mum is chronically ill.
Time to sharpen the old pencil for a few months and then blunt it in the summer.🤩

Sweet I write at least 3x stoned with 10x moments. Yes there are - 3x times as well but they have disappeared with experience. Like my memory :)
Paragraph 2! Spot on. During a paragraph 2 moment, i decided to report my manager to the Regulatory Authority for our industry. Which I then did.
Weight gain. All strains manage to give me the munchies, and my self-control flies out the window. I can plow through a block of Soreen in under five minutes - I shit you not!
Yep I've deffo got the weight gain going on. Currently "trying" to diet 🙃 now wheres them choccy bickies 🤣
I feel you. Think the only buds that never made me ravenous were Durban Poison and Blue Dream
It's the tastiest, lowest-fat snack I've found so far. Four green and one orange on the health traffic lights. I wish I could trade it for Dairy Milk, but that's when the serious poundage appears.
Haha why would anyone lie about that? The 'Honestly' was superfluous.
I know exactly what you mean though 😅
I know exactly what you mean though 😅
The only real negative effect for me is short term memory loss, which the pros massively outweight the cons.
I have Asperger's but smoking weed helps massively, my thoughts tend to race but with weed it slows everything down, I can focus on one thing.
This is huge for me because the racing thoughts leas to anxiety as I'm trying to think of too much too quickly and a lot small, simple problems combine and it feels overwhelming. Not with weed though.
For some reason it seems to "fix" that part of my brain. And it actually allows me to be content with existence.

One long term effect is a better sex life, makes you harder, last longer ,feel more and is definitely an aphrodisiac;)
TLDR: short term memory loss, apathy yet decisiveness, psychological expansion, hope.
Introduced back in the 90s in college, along with other recs 💊 as part of the London clubbing scene.
Lots of commercial hash about at the time which was demotivating in hindsight.
The weed mostly skunk and I remember fondly the laughs had, and epiphanies too.
I was a late teenager and combined with hallucinogens and later spiritual practices had some kind of brain rewiring that was terrifying and awe inspiring.
I’d quit for nearly 20 years before trying again about 4 year ago but that grew and I’ve been consuming and experimenting daily since lockdown. I even grew my own - 3 solo cups of StarDawg, Black Hulk and Easy Bud. Well proud!
I’ve always been sensitive and having a more psychedelic experience wasn’t uncommon. Even on tiny one hitters and I had a year of not only having a tiny tolerance but intense highs that were mostly bringing my subconscious to the surface and tbh all hell broke loose in all areas of my life. Like psychedelics, if you are of the persuasion to be interested in the big questions or have a past that’s traumatic, then it’s going to make you face it and give you the stark reality of the human experience.
I’ve been able to work through it but I fear for the masses who are embarking on their inner journeys unprepared. Not my circus but I have a heart and an understanding that the truths revealed can be devastating to the mind as well as freeing, perhaps providing the liminal space for humans to evolve that’s drowned out by this materialistic and oppressive world.
I love being high. It’s addicting for me. The escape. The creativity and ability to think and pose multi-angled concepts is simply exhilarating and I believe can help solve some of our most challenging problems globally, and locally in our families - my wife hates it but prefers me on it for example. Her hate is ignorance mind.
I’ve realised that for me, daily is more about tolerance, habit and escape. It’s our choice but you have to live with the costs and as someone said, the weeks and years go by and one can be happy with just taking life in… philosophically, I do have issues with this so I’m looking to be more ritualistic and purposeful with it as well as have moments when just to enjoy and experiment.
I’ve been shocked by the tolerance build up which really became noticeable after I found LB 🤣 seems a waste as I found in the last 2 months that the high doesn’t hit as hard or as long and that sucks ‘cause you feel like you’re chasing the buzz but it’s not, it’s the escape for me, but I’m aware of it, and I’m in control.

also started using cannabis again in lockdown after about 20 years.... looking out the windows high AF thinking fuck this shit was true enlightenment lol
Yeah, weed makes me super withdrawn if I let myself smoke all the time, it's ended relationships and has brought my current one to the brink, Im trying therapy and smoking less indica during the day.
Used to get globus sensation from high thc bud but thats gone these days.

“Globus sensation” thanks 🙏🏾
I also get this reaction from time to time and it coincides when I feel the weed is strong.
Also have other strange sensations which my anxiety labels as dangerous so my fight or flight kicks in.
I’ve learned that this is more about past sh*t being brought into the now and these effects of the body are just responses.
The challenge is to ride it out and then I find the experience is smoother ✌🏽

Once you know what’s really in your head it becomes easy. Bud makes you really understand, helps you get deep into your thoughts. It’s like a light bulb moment when you wake. Takes alot of work but we keep on tokin 😁
I have ADHD, without it my brain is like bag of snakes, every direction at once.
Even with it i struggle sometimes but its more like that glowy ball thing Will 'The Slap' Smith releases in Men in Black that caused the 1977 New York blackout.
Theres a squirrel on the balcony gotta go...

Peace. Freedom from 90% of my physical pain. Inflamation reduction & much more. Those are long term, 50 years, it builds up.
Great question.
I'm over 50, in gainful employment, reasonably fit and slim but an unhealthy diet for balance. Vape daily up to 0.4g but usually 0.2g max. Anyhoo, about 2g max a week but I'm using less strong flower just now, with better gear, I'd be using a lot less. Don't drink alcohol at all.
I too find incredible moments of clarity, especially after a hard day.
Vaping means i dehydrate a lot quicker and need to drink more water. I'd say my balance is less than 100% probably due to residual effects if anything. Overall I'm doing ok. The knowledge i have gained over the years and still need is not yet affected by daily use. Possibly a good barometer for things.

After ~15 years of heavy use daily I've got short/long term memory loss but I used to take other drugs so I'm not sure. I've got a neuralogical disability and weed helps keep me out of a wheelchair ect. The desire to be alone is because of choosy beggars not weed. Also I'm a huge man baby, also unrelated (maybe).
As with everything, moderation is key, as a habitual smoker, smoking daily for many years through pipe or bong, minimal use of tobacco, I am unsure whether its caused or calmed my temper.
The mental addiction is apparent whenever I try to detox or take a break i.e, low mood, depressive thoughts, lack of appetite (physical?)
It's all perspective and a lack of dopamine production so I am aware of my low mood when I feel it but can be hard to pull away from without distraction, it comes to pass after a few days, though the mood swings and negativity have already done their damage.
I think I have developed a bit of a dependency on it, the only solution is a long break.
I have a total love/hate relationship with the plant but right now it keeps me calm, very calm.

Long term for me personally it's had negative effects on a huge scale. I am day 4 off weed and feel so happier. I have seen lots same similar. I am dreaming again. Gym and Swimming. Weed really kept and held me back all my life.
Similar to psychedelics, it brings anything I’m avoiding or ignoring to bare. Which can lead to both productive and counterproductive action. Overall I think it helps expand consciousness if you’re willing, appreciate nature and the fact you are part of it. Not something that’s alien and just here by fluke. Sometimes I think it activates something that throws subliminal tests at you. For instance with the munchies, I know not to eat veggie oils, colourants, refined sugar and anything processed/ not organic. But when stoned to the bone that bag of haribo or sitting doing nothing sure does appeal. if I cave and do the above, the next day I’m almost ashamed I let the gremlin win. But if I push through eat some fruit and go climb that mountain, I feel instantly fulfilled. I know this may be abit nonsensical but I’ve been sober this week😂
My short term memory isn’t what is used to be, and my short term memory isn’t that good either.
This is probably an old thread, but it’s been an interesting read. I relate to most of the comments.
I have to say I’m pretty sure my memory has been adversely affected, but it’s almost impossible to say for sure right? There’s loads of factors.
But, the benefits are pretty substantial like. The shift in perspective was huge for me, I think it’s why conspiracy guys are often stoners - there is a sense of enlightenment at times, as wanky as that sounds.
There’s something communal about smoking as well I think, and I think it tends to make people generally more community minded, nature friendly and left leaning. Could just be a correlation or whatever but it’s pretty cool imo.
Support your local lollipop man and save the whales.

Smoking weed helps me stay slim 🤣 I don’t get the munchies, I eat less, when I quit my snacking increases and I gain weight!

Best Rap Show You've Ever Been To?
Only ever been to one, and it wasn't strictly rap. Ice T and his metal group, Body Count, at the Octagon in Sheffield. Must have been around '94 - '95…
Dr Dre and Snoop Dogg - Snoop UK live debut.
Crowd was bananas, show was over sold, security got rushed multiple times, police abandoned the area, chaos for hours, fights inside the venue everywhere, open weed and crack smoking, coke sniffing, displays of weaponry, dudes getting properly jacked up for their whole shit right in the crowd inside and outside...I got robbed at knifepoint myself...lost a few quid, kept all my blood lol...
Venue was Brixton Academy, about 90/91 I reckon, whatever year it was that 'The Mirror' put Snoops picture on the front page and called him an evil bastard in the headline lol....think it was to do with him being on bail for murder at the time...
Dre and Snoop opened with 'Deep Cover' in pretty much pitch black....crowd went fucking super nuts...no word of a lie, in the first minute and a half of that song about another half dozen serious fights broke out all over the place, people running through swinging shit like woah....fucking mad shit, dre and snoop only stayed on about 45 minutes as the whole shit was out of control so they pretty much fled...crowd went even fucking nuttier...
Took fucking hours to get out of Brixton, full on road block grid lock chaos madness...
But. That 45 minutes they were on stage was honestly one of the most electrifying things I have ever seen...Dre was already a seasoned performer and Snoop was still a kid and was completely fucking amped up and rocking this huge afro that made him look kind of crazy and he was completely into stoking the fuck out of the crowd which didn't help the situation lol....
I been to a lot of hip hop shows over the years but this was on some other fucking level of mad...
Notable mentions go to KRS One, Cypress Hill and Public Enemy - seen all of them multiple times and they are some of the best live performers around, their shows never disappoint and they know how to move the crowd...

man thanks so much for sharing, I only wish I could have experienced this. I no doubt would have been robbed but alas happy... xD
Dude, I shit a brick lol....yeah...I heard a song years later by Troy Scalpels, call 'It happened' and it's his story of a night out at hip hop club gone wrong and it's got this line;
'I wish I wasn't here, but the hop hop led me, the snare drum fed me, now I'm tripping, on upturned furniture'
...lol...everytime I hear it I think of that night...get the cold chill down the back... oooooh....

Jealous you got too see All the 90’s golden era on stage..
Jealous you got too see All the 90’s golden era on stage..
I been lucky man, seen so many amazing shows, Redman, Keith Murry, Das Efx, The Fugees, Onyx, Public Enemy, KRS, Funkdoobiest, Cypress Hill, half of Wu Tang (lol...)etc etc....pissed I never saw Pac or BIG though....I am biased but the 90s hip hop scene is the golden age for me man...give anything to go back and do it all again....
Has anybody seen ALL of the Wu in one place? I saw them in 2003 and it was only RZA and GZA plus a load of ransoms (and that UK guy they said was part of WTC)
Lol...I had three fucking goes at the Wu and still not seen all of them!...still never seen Inspectah Deck...the most under-rated of team but actually a killer mc...
Yes!!! Really is isn't he! Always loved Meth but have to admit Inspectah Deck is the most natural lyricist of them all
Yo this threads my jam. Who's sparking the blunt!?
My most notable concert. Rock the bells NYC can't remember what year. maybe 2016
Nas headling. DJ Premier and Pete Rock had a live beat battle. Cypress Hill on beforehand fucking smashed it, Mos Def and Talib Kwali are Blakstar before that.. Wu - Tang stage, got to see all the members apart from ODB. Mobb Deep were on their stage too. Lauren Hill played and brought out Pras and Wyclef to do some Fugees tracks. Can't remember who else but there were more.

Blunts, Stunts and Hip Hop man lol...
Daaammmnnn.....would love to have seen a Rock The Bells...they do quite a few of those full on 'mega tours' in the States...The 'Up In Smoke' tour would have been fucking awesome to see... Nas is one I never caught and would love too, Mobb Deep too...that must have been an awesome experience man.
Ha, the Fugees! Man they rock a live show. I actually saw the Fugees before they were big, they were actually playing as support for Das Efx lol!!! And first support at that, at like 9pm, real early, think it was K-Solo and Redman as 2nd support before Das on that one.
Yeah...it was at Subterania in West London, was funny actually....place is all hip hopped out, all carhart hoodies, tims and oversized jeans and bad attitudes lol then the fucking Fugees rock on to the stage and broke out the instruments and you can literally hear the 'what the fucks' all over lol...but shit....they started with Temple and it banged the fuck out the place...
Was very cool being such a small venue, at one point Lauren Hill was literally 4ft from my face on stage when she did that tune with the chorus 'some forget harlem' (I forget the name, very cool song) and I could actually hear her singing straight out her mouth kind of thing, (If that makes sense!?.. But like I could hear it before it hit the mic sort of thing..) and damn...raw, raw talent and soul and well....stunning woman visually you know...fried my weeded brain at the time, I was just like dazed out for 5 minutes, like ahhhhh, damn....lol...Saw her again at a sold out Wembley arena 10 years later...couldn't barely even see her on stage from my pauper seats lol...watched the whole thing on the side monitors...not the same...fuck the fame lol...

Jay Z at Hammersmith. Warm up act was Lupe Fiasco but Nas made an unannounced appearance as they’d just squashed the beef.
Even my ex was happy as Beyoncé also made an appearance.

Beastie Boys - Wembley Stadium 1999
Supported by the Jungle Bros
Was my first proper Hip-hop gig
However...
Glastonbury the same year (I think). Jurassic 5, The Roots, Everlast and Cypress Hill (pre-beef), Scratchperverts, DOOM, Slum Village, Black Twang (with Rodney P, Skinnyman and some of Mudfam), and I've a vague recollection of seeing either Cash Money or Prodigy but can't be certain.
One hell of a weekend for Hip-hop!!

Busta rhymes, nas, snoop dogg, jay-z, lil Wayne and skepta.
Busta was the best for hype, crowd was nuts.
Snoop was best for getting high, I was high as a motherfucker.
Nas was raw.

Man some of those lists are insane man.
Went to see Cypress Hill at Barrowlands Glasgow last year and it was immense! Two of my favourite tapes ever Cypress Hill - Cypress Hill and Black Sunday!
Also last year went to the Blastoff Tour Gig which was great fun although a bit commercial with the likes of Shaggy (who was shit haha)
Nelly, Salt N Pepa (They were soo good man! lol), Shaggy, Mya and Blu Cantrell.
Hosted by Fatman Scoop and included exclusive appearances from UK garage stars So Solid members Lisa Maffia and MC Romeo, scene pioneer MC DT and the British duos Oxide & Neutrino, DJ Luck & MC Neat and Sweet Female Attitude.
The best rap show I never made was Tribe Called Quest ?

Public Enemy at Homelands Festival. It was a greatest hits set and Chuck D killed it.
I've also seen the Wu Tang Clan three times, but not once have I ever seen the full line up.

Only ever been to one, and it wasn't strictly rap. Ice T and his metal group, Body Count, at the Octagon in Sheffield. Must have been around '94 - '95. Loads of white middle-class students going mental to the anti-establishment sentiments of a black dude from LA. It was a good night.
DJ Premier - I've seen him in many cities across the world but the show he made in Paris in 2010 right after Guru's death was legendary. He arrived late but we didn't leave the venue before 4am after screaming "Fuck Solar" for hours. Primo is really a legend
Rock the Bells in Amsterdam, think it was 2009 or 10. What a line-up De La Soul, Pharcyde, Nas, EPMD. Incredible show!
This is very hard.... but Skepta in Dublin 1 year ago... man Shutdown the place. A close second is Joey Badass in Dublin 3 years ago at the Olympia Theatre.... never forget he told this small blonde girl that things were about to get heavy.. so move to the back... she didn't... she got crushed..had to be carried out. Good Times, good times.
Insane Clown Posse put on a crazy show. Tech n9nes first show in London was crazy but I'd say Flatbush Zombies at the Ritznin Manny. Ever felt that floor bounce like that
Went to see snoop in Manchester years ago and cypress hill was the surprise opening act was amazing, snoop flicked his blunt into the crowd n that thing got attacked people fighting to get it🤣🤣😮💨😮💨🔥

I will let you borrow my wife.As soon as she starts moaning she brings my high back down to normal!!
Cbd takes the edge off, black pepper and lemon also help. Although I have only ever used them for stinging head highs!
TBH i sometimes take far more THC oil than I need along with CBD 121 it gives a much deeper stone
Strong cup of coffee will sort you out brother and some fresh air - get out in the fresh air too - good luck :-)
chew on some black peppercorns
i do not know the science behind it but i've seen it work very effectively in front of me

Hey Family,
Had that many times back in days working at customer service frontline :))
Generally smoking we reduce our Vitamin C in body , so buy freshly squeezed orange juice non concentrated to keep your imune system good so you dont feel tiredness, water , wash your face with cold water ! 250ML-0.5l orange juice normally balances it for us!
Peace and Respect

CBD, we have the receptors in our brain, I’ve always said smoking shit loads of thc with a sprinkling of CBD can make your high so much more enjoyable
Talk to my Mum for 2 minutes... That'll send you straight down to earth removing your will to live. In fact, I think she was the reason I started getting high!
I find a vendor (you) that promises to reship but just generates shipping labels that don’t move brings my high right down.
Although when the Borg refunded me 100% of my order I did have a little buzz! Thanks for the hassle Hebba!

Best budget options?
Hi there,
Never thought I'd need to make a post like this but unfortunately I lost my job two weeks ago. Job searching is going steady, but I've just ran out of my supply.
Usually I would go to more upmarket vendors but I can't really justify doing that when I don't know when I'll be paid next and I haven't had much experience with the budget options on here.
What are the best budget options on here that you've tried?

You’re a real one still Gen, I was on this site less than an hour and you made an offer to send me something.
You’re good people mate, the world needs more like you.
Best wishes to you and yours Gen ✌🏼

A lot of Biggas rave about the quality of the shake on here as the best value option. I’ve heard great things about the ones from Green Cat and RealD but I haven’t tried them myself so can’t say anymore.
If you like quality bud, I think this is a great example for the price:

I hope things work out for you buddy…drop me a DM and I’ll happily send you a mixed baggy of nugs from my Jar Of Joy…👍😉

Stay strong buddy it’s really shitty indeed.
To help budget my top picks are:
Real D skittles, 55ish quid with my fees for 7g of really tasty indica leaning relaxation.
As Polly said - green cats sweet tooth amnesia and cheese are both good offerings and tast well.
For me the real d edges it, as I think a few quid cheaper as green cat is +6$ delivery
Smalls from Riley was a good bargain too.

When I need an ounce of solid budget smoke in a rush I usually hit Pistash with that being said I've found a few other great vendors while trying out LB;
Justweed have some great shake/small nugs with free NDD - hard to go wrong.
Pontiffofpiff usually have some phenomenal budget smoke in rotation - waiting for some fruit juice myself
(if you catch British Bulldogs budget option in time you're also in for a treat)
Wishing you the best OP!

That’s gash man. Always shit to hear that.
We have all been there at some point. At the moment if you message British bulldog. He has a shit load of trim that he would do a custom on. This trim is far better than most shake that I have had from LB that I’ve tried with a few exceptions but this is not trying to anything it’s not. It’s fucking dam good trim. Clean and fresh. Actually smells like a bag of buds and when in the grinder then vape it’s smokes well. The best part is the price. Outstanding value for money.

Jealousy x Kushmintz is a solid smoke for the price, but there are cheaper options as well.
If your looking for good value have a look at the green team few decent deals. Rader breeder b grade bud. Shroom of the loom budget deals hash and bud. Good luck mate

Hi all
Just wanted to say a big thanks for the outpouring of support and recommendations from everyone here. Turns out that all my anxieties and worries were misplaced as I more or less got offered a job a week after this post was made lol. I start next week!
You all probably have an account with these guys! They are a big established company with a very good reputation and I'm grateful they're taking me on.
Now... if anyone has any primo flower recommendations for me to celebrate! 😎

My current primo advice would be to check out “Chase the Terps”
Riley packs has also consistently delivered me high grade 🔥
I got a little custom of biscotti and wagyu that should land Wednesday if you can hold out

Not sure how recent this post is but I would recommend..
shroomoftheloom small buds puffo gelato @ $55 a Q.
Nice smoke and does a good job
As mentioned before realD skittlez.
Even the skittlez shake is ok for a real cheap smoke and tobacco replacement.
Canadian imports also quite often have some very good cheaper options $35-40 a Henry including ND.
These are all great options if your on a budget my friend.
All the best🍀

Controversial topic... does the younger generation know about getting beaten as a kid for punishment🤣🤣🤣
Ive had this conversation with many people and its always a subject that has the potential to raise concerns but its normal for anyone above the age of 25ish or ethnic backgrounds.
Personally ... everyone i spoke to think that the reason the world and the new generation is so soft.. is simply the fact that parents dont hit their children anymore as discipline and its a general thought among mid 40s generation.
Its crazy because it used to be a common thing to smack your kid for misbehaving or even smacking the kid of your friend to teach them a lesson.
And this was like this for probably thousands of years for all we know 🤣🤯 But these days you could get locked up quickly for that.
Do you think getting hit as a kid did good for you or bad for you? ( physical abuse is different, we are talking about disciplining) and do you think less beatings are creating weak children or the opposite?
Its mad, this topic always comes up some way or another... either in gym or even walking down the road and seeing an old timer.

Personally I was hit as a child and it didn’t do me any good long term, the issue is it’s the fear of it that works more than the actual act imo, the issue is sometimes words arn’t heeded to so a smack on the bum or legs is the next step to make the point, I have never and would never hit my child in any way, I’d rather use psychological tools, like time outs and taking luxuries away but in the past kids didn’t have as much their lives now depend on like phones and consoles etc so that deterrent wasn’t around. The issue is I actually do believe in smacking IF it’s done right, in a calm and controlled manner, the issue is it’s usually not, it’s in a time of despair and anger and then discipline suddenly becomes a beating and that’s simply never ever ok obviously.
lol does this topic really come up at the gym? like big hard men grunting in the mirror while complaining about how they can't beat up kids without getting in trouble? they sound like the weak ones to me! although tbh I'd bet they don't even have kids they just saw a meme lol (I don't have kids either mind so what would I know)
😂😂🤣 can’t get this image out my head now thanks for lightning the mood. Honestly think it’s silly this is still in question. Violence breeds violence I was an angry teenager not by my nature but nurture sorted myself out a long time ago and am the person I always was deep down just saying not judging anyone
Why’s it always about generation? Kids still get beat you no it still does no good I’d argue the fact you think this is ok doesn’t make it ok and definitley not everyone who’s experienced it would agree with you mate no disrespect but your parents obviously smacked up you which was fine normal back then but I strongly believe kids deserve respect and a good example set scaring them into doing something is them fearing you not the same thing as respect
Ye of course would be a boring world without different opinions hope you have a good rest of your day
Terrible take IMO
Hitting your child only demonstrates that you have lost your own self control
Edit: - unless you deliver the blows in a calm and considered fashion but then you’re displaying some other iffy characteristics

Hello, I am in my mid 20's.
With where I live and everyone I went to school with, I have never received, seen, or know of a beating or "physical punishment" my entire life. When it came to discipline in our house, it was either being grounded, toys being taken away, time out, stay outstide in the garden. This was very effective for me as I lose something that occupies my time and gives me joy. For my sister it was a lot harder. Her behaviour seemed to remain the same of being a terror spoilt child and it wasn't stopping, my mum was threatening her with military school and that seemed to change her. My sister had a habit of making every punishment a treat. Sell her toys? Good, she likes the space. Send her to the garden for not eating food? Good, she will play in the garden. Every punishment didn't work. But when threatened to join a military school, that was something that couldn't lead to a fun alternative.
My mum got smacked on the backside if she fooled around, stole, or didn't do chores. I even asked my mum about this and she thinks that giving your child a smack is what you do to a child that is spoilt, never gets punished or never takes punishment seriously, and is bullying kids at school.
My dad on the other hand, his father can die underneath a jail cell. His step father is more of a father and man than that guy will ever be and I have never nor wanted to meet him. Only the oldest brother in my dads family was the only one who remained in contact. The rest of the family wanted nothing to do with him and reject him. My father hated him so much that he left the home at 16, denounced him as a father and didn't talk to or see him since.
Personally. If my dad or mum resorted to hitting me to correct my behaviour, then I wouldn't want to see them again and if I did i'd end up getting violent. But that's simply because I was a good kid in a sense? Like I said for my previous writing, taking something away from me was enough punishment enough and I really didn't know why. Only to find out in my adult hood that I have ADHD and mild autism, so taking away my computer was literally leaving me like a brainless zombie waiting for the days to end and I didn't want that to happen anymore so my behaviour corrected really easily after punishment.
I currently have the most loving best family in the world, they are everything to me, they come first, they were always there and believed in what I do and my life. There is no bad blood or trauma and I think that my parents parenting was the best way to do it for me.
In terms of being "soft". I don't really know what that means. If we are talking about never fighting back or letting people use you. Then i'm gonna be honest, I learnt more about bullies and how to handle them from prison movies like Mean Machine. First year in my school if someone tried to step up to me for what ever reason, i'd gladly start fighting. And then I won't get in any fights for the rest of my time in school. Its okay to lose a fight or what ever, its just about showing the bully and everyone else that you WILL fight back if fucked with, you ain't gonna be an easy target. My last fight was on the first year of high school at age 11, haven't been in a fight since.
Personally don't want kids, I think I would be too frustated and would result to quick methods to make them sleep, behave, eat food, anything. I'm even struggling to make sure my life is in order and everything is okay, adding a child for mandatory looking after for at least 18 years is not something I wanna sign up for.
I can't really give a one sided answer on if disciplining your kids is a yes or no solution. Imma just say its complicated and requires a lot of factors for each family as to why they do or don't do it and how it effected the child.

Ofcourse each individual is different and obviously parents will learn ways to discipline children through processes of trial and error, i have no negative opinions on parents that choose to discipline their children in the ways that suit them.
Everyone grows up different but with this topic its more generalised to the ages and how its seen as bad now more than before

I don’t think it’s about ‘beatings’, I think it’s about boundaries. Parents are just not setting them. This doesn’t necessarily mean they grow up as feral chimps (although some do), but they grow up confused and always trying to see how much further they can push things.
Modern parents want to be their kids ‘mates’ and I don’t think that works. But before we solve that we have to understand why kids are starting school not even toilet trained and eating baked beans with their fingers.
In an ideal world no one of any age would ever lay a hand on another in anger or reproach. I guess we should try and live up to that ideal.
I never got a hiding from my mother that I didn’t deserve, but another relative was violent in a way that still troubles me if I think about it today🤷♂️

Being your kids mates is hard, its something that comes naturally but also i feel like the natural order of respect must be adhered to.. i think children must ... out of respect have fear of their parents.
But not fear like in the way of afraid of the punishment... more in the way of fearing the disappointment you get from them

No, it's 100% unacceptable.
Using violence as a method of discipline gives children huge trauma, attachment and mental health issues, this has been well documented for years.
My mothers controlled beating of me gave me an insecure/avoidant attachment style meaning I struggle to build friendships as I don't have a secure connection to my mother.
Using violence to resolve problems with another human who is not threatening you is unacceptable always.
Don't beat you kids then ask why they turn out soft and afraid of everything, ask yourself why you want to hit people instead of talk to them.
Stop child abuse now.

The way its portrayed today - violence against children - of course it makes sense to oppose violence.
But what you are talking about is discipline, which is different to violence. Today it seems that there is no distinction and the concept of discipline has long been lost...

I think we’re in a shaky middle ground where we may of gone to far the other way but I don’t think kids today are to soft there’s nothing wrong with wanting a better less aggressive humanity..maybe lack some boundaries but you can set those without hitting kids.. i think it’s good we’ve moved away from it.. if you hit a kid as punishment what are you really teaching them?
This lack of distinction between discipline and outright violence is the reason people fear for childrens safety. But people have also lost trust in the parenting abilities which makes everyone think its only violence.
Its hard to explain but you have to have lived it , in order to know what the distinction is.

I’ve lived it.. I definitley didn’t appreciate it but maybe some parents can’t draw that line which is why they banned it. You can teach kids respect, manners all those things without physical punishment it only taught you that it is ok
Any human hitting another human a quarter of their size, is objectively a bully.
I choose not to bully my kids and their behaviour is fine

I don't think it can be defined as good or bad.
I'm early 20's and got beatings as a kid - uncommon for my age. but mostly they instilled fear rather then lessons.
I never recieved a beating and was like "oh so this is what i did wrong, this is why its wrong and why i shouldn't do that again" instead it was a "oh hes fucking terrifying". Which works for so long, until you get sick of being scared. That fear becomes resentment or becomes the base for mental health issues.
Parent/child relationships are so dynamic and different across the world. I don't think their is a correct answer to this question, It's based in culture and environment.
What works for some kids might not work for all.
A fish will always lose a race on land.

All 6 of us were beaten even before we could speak. I was told I was a failure and I believed it, it did affect me in many many ways.. spank your kids if you must but never face slap a kid and always explain why you are doing it.
I don't have children, which is possibly a good thing, because there's been many an occasion when I've wanted to drop-kick other people's unruly brats across the room. That said, I think physically punishing children is a failure in parenting. I have a friend who never forgave his father for physically punishing him for 'stealing' a toy when he was a nipper. He was too young to understand the concept of theft, and the punishment was the result of a strict grandparent pressuring the parent to act severely. If I did have kids I like to think I'd be disciplined enough to explain their errors without having to resort to physical punishment. No child should have to live in fear of pain. Children learn their values from the adults around them, so a good example should always be top of any grown-up's list.
It's not a funny thing.
How are you going to teach your kid not to hit people when you do?
We know that negative reinforcement doesn't work as a training technique. It just encourages fear and eventually violence.
My mum learned this last time she tried to hit me and I caught her hand.
Also, individuals aren't best placed to decide whether what happened to them was for the best or not.
Let's stop this uncivilised shit.

the last time, i was much bigger and stronger than my mum, she was losing the argument and insead of conceding, she struck me, i struck her back with the force of all the years of abuse, a slap, but a good strong one with meaning, she went gray, she was in shock, she drank her own kool aid that day, i just try to be calm and kind to her now even though its a struggle, its my mum, i feel like her shrink sometimes, telling her about the things in life she doesnt understand that stem from her own fears.
The easy part was the slipper hard part was the belt wrapped around the back of my legs & if the belt couldn't be found the hand came out
My Mon was clinically depressed back in the 80s and didn't receive much help at all she never would've did anything just called dad
Wasn't any discipline just slap room now Ur mom's not well
my auntie was scary lol

The problem is in this day and age you can't even tell a child off. Me & my missus just been through hell and back with social services because her 12 year old runs and tells her daddy that I'd told her off a few times when she'd really taken piss & according to social services shouting at kids is classed as abuse... what the actual fuck???
It’s called progress! Just like it used to be acceptable to hit kids it’s not anymore thanks god, it’s no longer ok to shout abusivley at them. You are allowed to tell them of pull the other one mate. My guess is you were out of line with the kids sorry!
Never been out of order with the kids. You don't know what an absolute cretin her ex husband is, he's always trying to cause shit. My Mrs would kick my arse if I was out of order
Different people probably have different ideas of out of order. But your Mrs is happy so I’m going to leave it alone. Bit of a sore subject for me maybe definitley a controversial thing for just weed to bring up. I don’t understand why it would be a conversation over weather beating kids is a good idea.. obviously not 😅
And her dad is laughing his balls off mate
Not out of line just by shouting would be different if you'd hit her then different a story . Keep it cool
Not out of line just by shouting would be different if you'd hit her then different a story . Keep it cool
Her dad needs putting down he used to beat the eldest 2 but treats the youngest like a golden child and barely acknowledges the older 2 now, not to mention all the mental abuse he put my missus through. He loves causing shit
Personally, I think hitting anything is not a form of discipline. It’s a ‘I don’t know how to discipline so I’ll be violent’ mindset to me. I would recommend looking up some behaviour studies for children that are/were smacked.
im autistc, i got beaten for thins i couldnt understand, that hurts, not only that my mum asked for parenting advice from some good christian hicks, she said her hand was hurting from all the smacking so they told her to use wooden spoons, my dad used to prostrate me and hit me with belts, it really messed with mt mind as a child as i couldnt show them or recive love from them, they acted concerned when they saw blood, i was being used as an emotional punchbag, worse was the psychological abuse and sense of worth
Any parent who has to resort to physical violence to discipline their children is already a failed parent. There are many people with children who have very limited intelligence and this is the main problem.

Artctic Monkeys seem to be getting flak for a sub-standard set at Glastonbury last night. Am I missing something? I thought they were banging. A proper tight performance in my opinion, whether you like them or not.
I thought Alex Turner's vocals were a bit off, I think he has been ill though. Don't think the set was anywhere near as bad as some of the critics have suggested.
Considering Alex has just had acute laryngitis I thought he did well. I think some folk are just upset that they're maturing/evolving as a band.

Indica Vs. Sativa - is it all BS?
I agree. Sativa is far more likely to make me anxious, whereas Indica is just a lovely, warm brain hug.

Indicas are sedative/couchlock, Sativas are lively/creative, right?
After 20 years of experience, I've come to believe there are so many other factors at play, that whether it's an Indica or Sativa is rendered borderline irrelevant.
I've certainly never had a bud that's made me run around like that athlete kid in Breakfast Club.
Anyone agree?

I spent close to a year living in Amsterdam. With exceptional quality buds, you can expect to receive the typical couch lock and sedation with a good Indica and a buzzy euphoric racing high with a solid Sativa.
Dr Grinspoon at Katsu coffeeshop was a pure Sativa, it was like drinking a double espresso, no ceiling to the high, it didn't roll over, one for the morning...
Apparently some Sativa's can work the opposite on some people, and can couch lock them. Amnesia Haze is a particular potent strain, whilst it's a sativa, it can deck you.
Perhaps check Leafly or Wikileaf for further advice on certain strains.
Have a good one.

The science says it’s bollocks full stop.
BUT…like a lot of people I have go to strains for when I want to get stuff done and others for when the bean-bags are calling. All part of the fun! 🥳❤️

after 18 years of heavy daily smoking, in my experience indica + sativa are just buzzwords, mostly used by trendy casual smokers so they can "pick a side and have a favourite"
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5576603/
in my experience the terpenes play a way more important role when it comes to the overall effects and experience of each strain, i've had sativa's that couchlock and indica's that are uplifting and energetic which are the opposite of their supposed effects

Some Sativas can give me mad insomnia.
Indica never happens.
Love sativa and coffee during the day and indica before Zzz.
I think everyone is diff though.

I think its more complicated than people think
If i vape Animal Mints or Obama Runtz at 180c I get sativa effects. If it vape Gorilla Glue 12 at 230c I will get indica effects. Yes smoking brings out the expected effects but the fact I can tweak the effects via temp makes me think its not as easy as indica/sativa
Furthermore, some sativas like Acapulco Gold or J1 are like a cup of coffee in the morning. Legit clear headed energy. Something like the Pink Lady is a sativa but it is more chilled. I think terpenes have a very big part to play in it. Maybe the kush terp has indica effects and that's why despite being a sativa, the Pink Lady doesn't hit like the J1 for example. I'm rambling a bit here but I hope you all get what I mean

There's a difference for me, stick to indica strains as sativa always seems to make the heart race and the anxiety then comes on and spoils the high. Maybe all in my head but happens everytime.
same for me, and strong indicas give me this incredible healing feeling that i just don't get from sativas
I've smoked 26 years, used to smoke anything and enjoy it all but now I notice a huge difference between the effects of sativas and indicas, every time I obtain an indica strain it's hugely relieving for my ptsd and post cancer surgery pains, and sativas almost always give me nasty anxiety. I'll still smoke them tho, because I'm an addict haha
I agree. Sativa is far more likely to make me anxious, whereas Indica is just a lovely, warm brain hug.
I think this is it, I’ve smoked for 20 years but didn’t notice the difference until really started to pay attention and start to use for medical rather than recreational reasons there is 0 doubt in my mind there is a very easily notiible difference. It’s natures way so everyone can be helped by this wonderful medicine, Sativa to speed things up, indica to slow things down. No one will convince me otherwise on this I’m certain if I was given a heavy sativa dom and n indica I’d know the difference within a few tokes
For me, I believe it to be true to a certain extent. I find with sativa heavy strains I feel a buzz in my head and it's above my ears. With indica heavy it's below my ears and I'm definitely more lazy. It's not a massive difference for me though. My mind tends to wander and think about more random bollocks with a sativa too. Who knows maybe it's all in the mind. All this energetic stuff I see is pure bullshit for me though. If I'm high, not much is getting done.
There are many factors that contribute to an overall feeling. I wouldn’t say Sativa/Indica is the dominating answer. That’s like saying my only expression is sad or happy... However, things get a bit more technical when you dig into it. Being able to simply explain an estimate sensation to buyers in percentage i20s80 is hugely beneficial. It helps people learn about what they’re buying, that’s not a bad thing
Seems the terpenes have a part to play, In the effect of cannabis aswell. not to mention that it seems a good %90 of strains are hybrid, you have an Interesting take non-the-less.
Alot of the time you can only really notice when it's grown properly!
In my basic opinion:
Sativa = High
Indica = Stoned
In my basic opinion:
Sativa = High
Indica = Stoned
It’s all about harvest times. If you let the sativas trichromes go amber, then you might get a couch lock. Similarly if you harvest your indica when the trichromes are clear, then you might feel creative and focused;)
Seems to depend on people’s chemistry. I cannot take Sativa or hybrid strains any more. Make me paranoid and awful circular thoughts and insomnia. Indica Im easy like a Sontag morgen. I grew up with hash in the 90’s whi I think must have been mainly indica and I used to love smoking. When skunk came along it was hit and miss and paranoia used to be more frequent. Thanks to Lb I’ve been able to buy what suits me both in terms of hash and weed. Got some lovelY Northern Lights and Hindu Kush and Fanta hash which are right up my strasse.
This is without a doubt important to me, after years of trial and error, I've discovered my ideal is a hybrid around 80 indica and 20 sativa, so pretty much something like a og kush or something, I've found a more sativa dominant strain will mess with my head, I get hyperactive and often get headaches, I can instantly tell if the weed isn't right for me, I think it depends upon you, personally I smoke for pain relief and mainly to switch off, I like the real stoned feeling you get from indica, it's like a warm blanket for your brain, I do have a very active mind so this suits me, of course each strain and type affects us in different ways, I can't say I've really every enjoyed sativa dominant strains but when I have smoke it I find it goes really quickly as it doesn't hit the spot, I'd say I'd be active with sativa as a rule if I had to smoke it .....
Same although I can’t really do any sativa. Just pure Indica and a nice red wine and I’m in my happy place.
More often than not it doesn't make much of a difference but there are exceptions. Maybe it was down to the terpenes, but...
So, I lived in Seattle for nearly 10 years and smoked on the daily and there wasn't any drastic difference in the effects of the many different strains on the go except for this one time that will forever stick with me. I had been smoking a typical kush number with dense nugs for most of the day before heading out to a place for hot wings with my mate. Dude pulls out a very straggly and wispy looking bud from Oregon, puts it into a bowl and we fire it up. Not a minute or two later that shit came on strong and cut through the Kush fog like a hot knife through butter. A rush of high energy blasted away the previous hours of smoking and we ended up high as fuck giggling like lunatics over hot wings. That's the day I realised that a real 100% sativa does exist and it's a fucking blast.

Total crap IMO..
What tests were conducted to determine whether a plant is indica or sativa?
It usually is one person who bred the strain, will smoke it and say this makes me feel couchlock or uplifting and then give it an approximate rating.
Since the rec market came into play all strains provide all effects you may desire from the plant.

Personally regardless of the weed is indica or sativa its the terp profile like for couch lock it would have to contain a good amount of mycrene to get this effect other terp profiles do different things I would imagine if it was indica or sativa and didnt have enough of the terp profile in either of them for what ur desired effect I dont think it's down sativa or indica more of what terp profile that weed carrys
There's definitely a difference in high between cultivars with the tropical 'Sativas ' generally being more energetic and psychoactive but now that everything is a hybrid , these classifications don't make a lot of sense anymore.
Also , those indica/sativa percentages are completely made up.

I too have about 20 years experience smoking different strains, including solids. I normally smoke 'bud' though.
The last solid i smoked had hardly any effect on me at all - it used to make me really 'horni', 20 years ago.
However, i do notice a difference between Indicas and Sativas. I do a physical job and an Indica strain does take the aches & pains of old age away, for me personally.
Ive had one particular Sativa that did make me run around like a headless chicken... lol

I've smoked, vaped, eaten it for over 50 years. Travelled around most of the producing countries of the East & Africa in the 70s. Grown much and spent time with several breeders too. Indica, Sativa and Ruderalis are real. A zillion hybrids confuse the Taxonomy thse days.

I think this is a really interesting topic.
Literature (e.g. https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-319-54564-6_4; https://www.researchgate.net/publication/322819487_Cannabis_Taxonomy_The_'sativa'_vs_'indica'_debate; https://www.liebertpub.com/doi/full/10.1089/can.2015.29003.ebr) disputes that the two are categories of weed with distinct effects, not least due to interbreeding and two hundred year old taxonomical confusion. I'd probably agree with this.
But if this was 100% the case, then why would so many people (myself included) claim to feel different effects with indica strains vs sativa?
One option is placebo - obviously a very powerful mechanism and I'd like to see blind trials about this.
My current theory which I've been thinking about a lot recently is that it's due to terpenes - as they are widely believed to mediate the effects of cannabis, is it possible that some are more prevalent in indica strains and others are more prevalent in sativa strains?
Obviously exploring the entourage effect and terpenes in cannabis, and even research involving cannabis in general, is a relatively new field so I'm excited to see what we find out in the next decade and beyond.

The interaction between terpene levels and cannabinoids is most likely the explanation for the perceived differences between indica and sativa.
A lot of sativas have little to no cbd, cdb affects the way thc acts, a lot of sativas have lemon, orange or citrus terps which seem to be the more uplifting and eurphoric terps, so sativas having an uplifting effects but being more likely to induce anxiety makes sense given terp and cannabinoid profiles.

Yep, that example with sativa strains often being limonene dominant is what I'd noticed to get me thinking about this.
It's funny though because indica dom strains can make me para which is contradictory to the typical assumption that sativa = anxiety. Obviously everyone is different and will see different effects but it would be nice to know about contributing factors.
We really need to see more research on this; it's honestly surprising that it's so under researched as the medical applications (esp for mental health) really demand understanding of these issues.

I don’t know really. A lot of it is down to the grower and how good they are. That has the most influence on affect for me.
Hey Family,
It is not as both have different highs and affect differently on every individual. Some prefer Indica or some prefer Sativa , its basically what they body and mind likes. We have topic on this and link is included in post.

Indica strains are the "Netflix and chill" of cannabis, known for their sedative effects that can leave you comfortably glued to the couch. On the other hand, Sativa strains are the "let's paint the living room" of cannabis, renowned for their uplifting and creative effects that can get you off the couch and into an artistic frenzy. Am I hitting the right notes here?
Interesting post, I have been thinking the same myself recently. Been smoking 20 years and I have always seeked out indicas as I preferred the couch lock but I have recently been trying to try a few sativas to try and get more of a creative high. found nothing yet, any suggestions on a strain if not just looking for a sativa?
I generally dislike pure sativas and hazes, but super silver haze is the exception for me, I've really enjoyed that many times worth considering have seen some listed on here
Dr Grinspoon, Sour Diesel, Ghost Train Haze, Mimosa. To name a few Sativa's. I spent close to a year living in Amsterdam, and I definitely noticed the difference. Sativa's or hybrids, will leave you buzzed, so best to only smoke these either morning or afternoon. Save the indica for late night, or a day on the couch with TV.

Murder Mountain - Netflix
Easily the best documentary mini series I've seen in years. And I watch a lot of them. Fascinating if you're interested in the cannabis business, and murder....and weird isolated communities, and loads more.
Just incredible. Seen it 3 times and might watch it again.
Tiger King on Netflix is also pretty good although didn't need to be as long as it was. Seemed to be dragged out over too many episodes.
Cheers BB

Yes, (Murder Mountain) I need to watch that again. Started casually watching that and then couldn't believe what I was watching. Tiger King is fun to watch, but Murder Mountain should just as much credit or hype.

Learning the identity of Q wasnt bad either, this is important journalism that happens to have amazing characters.
If you are at all interested in hip hop, check out the BBC Four series "Hip Hop - The Songs That Shook America". I only saw one episode so far, but there are some amazing interviews, old footage and stories.
didn't rate it tbh, didn't think it did the best job of telling his story and jumped around too much. Found it tedious to watch at times imo. I'm a big biggie fan so had high hopes
These new BBC nature docs are great if you have a 4K tv ;) I just got one. The last tv I bought was a cube, so it’s amazing picture ;)
Yeah Icarus is amazing. I am not sure if a saw The Octopus Teacher, I saw a couple about Octupus and they are amazing creatures. Thanks I will check it
Hands On a Hardbody: Amazing documentary about a competition to win a car. 24 people compete by keeping their hand on the car and being the last one standing. Sleep deprivation, insanity, giggles and heartbreak ensue.
The Decline Of Western Civilization: There's 3 of these. The second one is the funniest. In parts it's like a real-life Spinal Tap.
Heavy Metal Parking Lot: This is on Youtube and is only like 10 minutes long. But it's about the carpark scene at a Judas Priest concert. Mullets and questionable characters abound.
Project Grizzly: Mad man tries to invent a suit that will allow him to survive a grizzly bear attack. He ends up looking like Robocop. One of the funniest documentaries ever made.
American Movie: Amateur filmmaker is trying to get his horror movie made over multiple years. Follows him and his cast (locals/family) and the terrible movie they make.

If you haven't seen One Day in September, check it out. It's about the hostage situation at the Munich Olympics. A story of misplaced political activism/terrorism and the mind-blowing incompetence by the authorities who were tasked with handling it. Or, The Fog of War, in which Robert McNamara - late US Secretary of Defence - talks candidly about America's devious role in many 20th Century events.
Yeah good one. The Fog of War: need to check that one out.

I must admit, I am a die hard carnivore. But that doc did make me think about eating less meat too. Check Joe Rogan podcast too with the doc maker. Very interesting.
The same here- ended up eating less meat just because I started eating more veg :) Not a black/white path though as there are A LOT of poor quality "vegan"-labelled products with tonnes of salt and things that are much worse than meat.
Was just about to say, totally agree - Vegan doesnt mean healthy. We got wrapped up in Beyond meat etc etc but you check the ingredients and most contain methylcellulose and other synthetic products that we are not totally clear on how they effect your body - stick to vegetables, fruits and if anything you buy has less that 5 ingredients in it, you are on to a winner 🙏🏽

Most Reliable Shipper on LB?
I'm sick of paying extra for "next day delivery" and not having it arrive anywhere close to next day. Are there any vendors on here you can actually trust to provide NDD when you give them plenty of warning?
There are many, but you have to be realistic with cut off times and occasionally lenient with the pressure on vendors. The ‘need for speed’ causes more disputes on here than virtually any other issue.
The cardinal sin is when you pay for NDD etc and it doesn’t get sent that way. But most vendor’s seriously try to get that order out in line with their service promise.
Great NDD providers in my experience include The Gentleman Dealers, Dr Greenthumb, Dr Terpy and Canadian Imports (but check latest posting days)..

Hi Pollypuff
Spot on again my friend :-)
There is no way a seller can guarantee 100% once the parcel is in the system, many things can happen which are outside of the seller's control.
I see SD more as a way for the seller to see what happened with a parcel if it goes missing. Easier to agree on a refund if the seller can see you didn't get it (so a must for big orders).
As it stands I just received an order today which I ordered SD on Wed last week - posted on Thu according to seller.
I assumed that the Coronation had been wreaking havoc with RM services but looking at the enveloppes they used 1st class not SD.
I've just dropped them a message according to the LB etiquette. Probably an oversight on their behalf.
I remember all too well how I used to get my wares - and what I used to go through - before discovering LB.
As long as it arrives - and the quality and quantity match the order - I'm not fussed.
Cheers

This exactly. If I paid for a NDD service and did not receive it, I would send a note to the vendor and see if they could make it right somehow, if it was that serious to get NDD.
But I also remember back some time ago (lol), when I had to go to the gas station pay phone, page my dude, hope that he calls back quickly, and then wait. Sometimes he’d come in 20 min, sometimes 3-4 hours. And even as of present day, prior to LB, dealing with bs about meeting here or there or where or when… So I have a fairly high pain tolerance for waiting, especially given how incredible it is that finally a place like this exists. But to give the op his due, I would have something to say to the vendor if I paid for something and didn’t get it. But let them make it right for you.

I totally agree. Some Biggas would react less angrily if they got a dog turd in their package than they do to NDD not arriving NDD! 😂
I know this is controversial and beside the point but I tend to order long before I run out so that does tend to help with the stress.
But I’m still the same as every other Bigga at the end of the day…checking for the post 15 times, grilling the Postie like it’s his fault and total disbelief that my fucking package hasn’t arrived the day after I ordered it!! 😖💥😖
But then it all comes good eventually and the world is back on its axis! 😶🌫️

Hi Biggas
As it turned out the seller did make it right and then some.
In fact I was not upset about the SD not being SD but one of the order items was missing which was my main reason for messaging them.
They resent it with SD and added some freebie edibles :-)
Big massive hats off to DIUK for sorting it out with class, talk about customer service.
Goes a long way to prove that comms is what you need when things don't go as planned. That and sticking to top vendors.

With you all the way Dukey!…the only orders I’ve had not ever arrive were sent (or not sent, being the point) by RM first class.
Tracking helps us all. I don’t need the numbers I just need the seller to check it when it’s late.
But you need to get what you pay for and where sellers offer premium postage that’s what you should get…👍👍

Well, dr green thumb couldn't manage it either and the tracking # they provided doesn't work. Gonna hold off judgement til I know more but I guess the search continues!
Been here since Jan. 25 or so orders in and I've not had a single fail to land. The longest wait I had was 4 days which was the only first class item of the lot. The rest were NDD/T24 and took no more than two days. Of the top off my head (and I sincerely apologise to any vendor I miss off) these ones I have ordered more than once from and they've arrived as advertised:
Dr Green Thumb
Pontiff of Piff
Pistach
Yourmumshouse
The Green Team
Gassed
There's a fair few I have had one order from and again was as advertised (Riley packs, Gen Hub 2.0, Green Cat all had some lovely product). Keen to see how the post plays out though as there's still some vendors I feel obligated to try out soon.

Pistach has been utterly terrible for me. Said they'd send NDD, and didn't even send it til i got in touch with them to ask for tracking because it hadn't arrived. Now being super unresponsive so i don't even know when to expect it.
That's a shame. I've had three orders all drop next day recently. Hope you get sorted anyway.
ULC have always been top drawer for NDD in my experience. Even ordering at 11am delivered next day.
Pistach has been releasing some really good flower at knock out prices lately, they're probably getting overwhelmed with orders. I believe they're also on TG, so busy vendor. Honestly, their stuff is amazing, but sometimes pay a little extra with a vendor you've used before. Have to say though, I've ordered from Pistach and never had an issue, think you're just in the 1% bud :(
I wouldn't mind if they didn't give me an attitude about their mistake and then go no-contact so i have no clue even if my order has been correctly shipped yet.
Eddys hash bar, have ordered from him twice. Both times came next day. Can’t praise him enough, great coms too
GenHub2.0 & Rileys Packs always arrives on NDD for me, but so does UrbanLeafCo on 1st class & its free!!??
Dr Green Thumb, RealD and Urban Leaf Co, order from all 3 always get it the next day no issue.
We absolutely can my friend get an order into us before 12 we can get it out that day for ndd..
In saying this sometime orders take a while to come through so we suggest making the order the evening before or in the morning.
Much Love

I always order NDD with plenty of time to spare for this reason, usually before midnight the night before.
Can tell my dyslexia kicks in more when I'm stoned by the fact the topic header I read first time was "Most Reliable Snipper on LB", I thought they only sold weed and shrooms lol.
In regards to your actual topic, The Green Team and The Pontiff are reliable, It's in venders interest to get it sent asap because they have to wait to get those funds from escrow. And if you're like me and live in the sticks with a less than reliable RM then i just accept delays. Also from reading the occasional manifesto it's clear some venders don't post ever working day. But it is always annoying to pay for a service you are not getting.

Our packs are shipped as per our manifesto. If you order NDD before cut off time it will be shipped accordingly.
Shocked to see how many people are not getting their items sent on time.
The one time we missed delivery, all buyers were informed and upgraded to saturday delivery to ensure they receive ASAP.

Honestly, never had an issue with any vendors here. However, special mention has to go to Dr Terpy, without fail, their Free 1st Class RM always arrived next day, and the quality has always been out of this world.
Some NDD seem to land quicker than others and I've had tracked parcels checked etc wether that's due to location/distance time of post I don't know or genral delays some just always seem to drop an extra day or two after
However from experience dr green thumb has pulled me out the shit a few times aha always been one day cant fault them. Eddys hash bar another and also gassed have been no more than two days
Another tip check the consistency of reviews and days taken pal always gives a good indication

I have placed around 8 orders from different vendors over 4/5 months. My favourite is ULC as all orders from them have arrived the next day and they provide RM 1st postage for free. Top top vendor with super nice bud.
The Gentleman Dealers and then Canadian Imports. The odd time it's been longer than ndd it's been because of my stupid rural location and royal mail snafus
Never had a problem with this personally. Like others have said think that there is no guarantee a seller can give as it it down to the delivery service. For reliability I can vouch for Riley packs , pontiff, pistach and big shout to RealD every order of the shake with free shipping has landed ndd
Check us out Free Special Next Day Delivery by 1pm.
I’ve sent special deliveries that have taken 4/5 days, other times I’ve sent first class signed for and it gets there in a day. From someone who been dealing with these thieving slow fuckers is it’s not the vendors fault if parcel goes missing or is delayed.

Struggling to find anywhere that doesn't require id
I'm sure it was a fairly simple transaction when I bought my Bitcoin. I used Coinbase and my bank didn't give me any grief.
Struggling to find anywhere that doesn't require id
I've been sat here trying many different places to by Btc, most recommended on here but they all seem to require id verification somewhere along the line. I'm a noob so go easy on me please 😬
All I want to do is buy some with debit card with no messing about lol

Hey mate.
Try Hodl Hodl or local bitcoin there's no KYC on these. They're P2P platforms. The transaction fees will be higher though without showing ID!
Hope this helps, ULC

Thanks proper flapping here as just found out my bank doesn't allow purchase of crypto either so even if I do swallow it and use id I'm buggered. All I want is to order 😩 😫 😪 tin is empty lol
Skrill.
Need ID tho, but hey ho you've already gave then your back details ;)
It's simple after I'd verified.
Bank to skrill to vendor.
My bank also prohibitis buying crypto, skrill by passes this feature.
The new skrill is better, until last year i order for my to bypass the banks prohibition I had to use skrill, then coinmama, then bitwallet to pay the vendor.
but as said ID I needed, bit the bullet it's worth it :)

Cheers dude. I managed to find a fairly easy way. I signed up for a revolut bank account. They let you buy crypto. Minimal fucking about especially for a technophobe like me
Personally I'd recommend everybody gets a Crypto Bank account. Never any issues with transferring Fiat in both directions and exchanging for BTC is a doddle.
Plus you can use the Visa card just like you can with your high street bank card.
There are a few options but cryptopay I think is the best. Link above. Piece of piss to setup.
Cheers BB

I use bittylicious. I can’t remember if they wanted ID or not to set the account up, it was years ago.
But you can purchase by BACS transfer to circumvent any restrictions your bank may have. Really quick and easy.
I don’t even have a wallet. I just transfer the exact amount directly into the vendors wallet through Bittylicious.
Even if they want ID, what’s the issue? Buying a bit of smoke or some shrooms on LB is hardly going to get you in any trouble, even if they ever managed to track you down.

I use Blockchain. Was simple and fees are low. I did use Paxful but it was hell on earth.
i think revolut require a selfie but not ID, great app to use as its basically just a bank account
Without id fees are terrible, i've used this place a few times.
I use local bitcoins and some vendors on there don’t require ID. Happily use them a fair few times.
Cheers will look at this. Like just said above just found out that neither of my banks allow purchase of crypto 🙄 😒 this noob has steam coming out his ears 👂 🙄 😳
I'm sure it was a fairly simple transaction when I bought my Bitcoin. I used Coinbase and my bank didn't give me any grief.
any chance you have a bitcoin atm in your area? its a quick and easy way of buying btc with cash, and its anonymous(no id required). you only need a wallet obviously, i myself use electrum and im pretty satisfied. the fees on the btc atm i use are quite high(5eu usually), but its worth it. less traces left behind
apart from build - in camera and ID recognise systems, automatically connecting your face to wallet you choose - there is a Big Bro anywhere, Mate
For me that's a far more viable option, as I can't even use my credit card to buy crypto cus any transactions are blocked by my bank. If covids around I guess you could mask yourself up if too paranoid haha. There's always some risk involved, at the end it's about the lesser evil man
Paybis, Changely,send Bitcoin direct to the vendor charges do apply but no id verification.Good luck bro
i use exodus wallet, its free, never had a issue and you can also set your own transaction fees

Packing help
Hi guys, I'm a new grower and I've read alot of great information on this site about stealth.
My question is how do you package the weed to avoid damage. I've had weed delivered both in plastic pop top containers and then all the stealth and just directly vacumm packed.
How do others minimise damage and crushed weed? Does the packaging vary depending on amounts? Ideally you'd keep the packaging components to a minimum to avoid drawing attention as you go around ordering and buying it all.
Currently growing Afgan Kush Ryder and glue Gelato, still got months before it's ready but wanted to get ahead and plan.

You'll probably find you can get 100 for just a couple of quid more, and they look much more professional.
Hi mate, you can buy 1g 3.5 or ounce Mylar bags on Amazon.
You get 100 for £30 and we’ve found these a great option.
We put ours in the Mylar bag and then double vac seal and we’ve never had a problem.
Good luck for the future ✌🏼

How To Build Buyer Reputation As A Newbie
So I recently got started on LB, and made an order on the weekend. Unfortunately it's been cancelled, as I'm a newcomer.
What can I do to be trusted when making orders as someone new to the site? While I understand the reason, I'm disappointed this was my first experience.

Good comms solves everything. It’s always a good idea to message a vendor you are interested in buying from. This holds true for longer term Biggas too because you can often gauge the quality of a vendor by their comms.
Just ask them if there will be any problem buying and tell them the intended quantity of your purchase. They will probably be fine with it, or then ask the same to another vendor….you’ll soon have a track record👍

This is great advice from Polly here, the key is talking to folk.
Be respectful, don’t be a dick
(I shouldn’t have to state this but it’s amazing how many aren’t polite or respectful)
be patient, remember you are buying an illegal product from (some) good people who go out of their way to try to provide a good service AND product and they risk a shit tonne to do so.
Build up a rapport so you can message your vendors and chew the fat/keep them updated/ask questions and vice versa.
This way you’ll get some love and you’ll quickly work out who the good guys are (hi British Bulldog, Druids Magic, Sassy Buds, Hashishin 👋🏼❤️😍) from the rest of the pack!

I don't deal with customers with less than 10 buys, but if newbies message me before they buy I'll setup a custom order as I can then track their review. If they were buying to troll me they won't want a traceable custom order.
Basically you're 100% correct, communication is everything.
Cheers BB 😊👍🍻

Some people think it's vendors who are annoyed with the success of others leaving 1/10 reviews. Personally I think it's just random people with some mental health issues, but i could be wrong.
But yes, it does happen. It was a lot more common when I first started on here, but it's still a thing that vendors (especially new ones) can go through.
It's a shame but LB is a bit like the Wild West...so it's inevitable.

Recently had this same situation a bigga with no buys , he politely messaged me after he ordered n asked if I mind . I wrote back yes you are welcome I’m usually happy to help newcomers if for instance it was a 500$ order bud I would maybe not but a few testers is fine . Very polite chap and sent me a nice thankyou message when he received his order , 2 happy people 😁
Hey
You can just build your reputation by making orders mate. Due to trolling some vendors don't accept new buyers which is understandable. Most vendors experience this at some time or another.
We accept new buyers but only post out small amounts to start with to build trust between ourselves and the buyer.
We offer free 1st class post and have 1g to 3.5g at the moment.
Check out our page if you like and if you have any questions feel free to drop us a message.
Thanks, ULC

Oh yeah I get why, some people like to mess around but I just wanted some smoke lol. Was a very small order to test the waters.
I'll check you out, probably drop you a message soon. Thanks!
I'll check you out, probably drop you a message soon. Thanks!
very sorry to hear this, you shouldnt have to do anything but some of the sellers don't take on noobs and they state this in their description or terms. if this wasn't the case we would like to know.
Hi Halogenesis
My first purchase as a complete newbit was with greentech.
I had zero purchases so drop them a message and see what they can do for you.
I'm fairly new myself but here is what I found out:
1- For a safe purchase start with sellers with high feedback scores in the 9+ range
2- Stick to vendors offering NDD/SD if you want peace of mind
3- NEVER EVER describe a vendor's stealth (the way in which they disguise/protect the parcel/letter contents)
4- If you have an issue with a vendor always try comms in the first instance
Good Luck

Read the description on the sellers page before buying.
They will write on their page a number of minimum orders required to buy from them.
So only buy from sellers that don't have a minimum order requirement in their bio.
This is what I did for my first few orders and never had any cancelled I remember just buying some cheap trim for 30-40 to get some orders in.
Hope this helps, fellow bigga 👍

There wasn't anything in their description that said newcomers weren't allowed, so thought it'd be alright. Gonna try again somewhere else though.
Thanks mate! Still glad to have found this place
Thanks mate! Still glad to have found this place
Have a look at established vendors ,give them a little message explaining wats happening and if it's OK to order. Go for ndd like Dr greenthumb. Good luck
Don't take it personally. The second order I received was cancelled, which left me somewhat deflated. It takes time to build up trust when engaging in a pursuit that has always been seen as 'dodgy'. Just stay active on the site, engage with people, and when you do get a sale make sure you communicate.
With this advice, we hope the algorithm will soon select our page. Although we have a few sales under our belt, our customers have left some great reviews.
Was it cancelled by the vendor or by the refund borg?
If an order lies for too long without the vendor response the refund borg kicks in.
Best to put in orders on weekdays and yes send the vendor a mail before buying if its your first time using them and explain your situation as a first time buyer,i am sure the guys will sort something out they are a good bunch.
Dont get disheartened as this place is the best once you get your foot in the door ;)

Refund Borg (‘Auto Settlement Borg’) only cancels an order if it has not been marked as Sent by the Vendor within 100 hours….👍
Can attest to this.
Had an order auto cancel cos the vendor had some issues, they reached out and were super nice, offered to throw some extra in if I reordered, just waiting on it to land now, there are some fantastic people on here!

Movies to watch when baked
What movies you advise to watch when smokin da erb? A lot of classics like the fridays, how high, half baked, gear and loathing to name a few.....
Monty Python's Life of Brian, piss yourself laughing from start to finish, then spend the next two hours singing 'Always look on the bright side of life'.
Anything directed by Wes Anderson! Such vibrant colourful movies that really pop when you're high. And they're filled with hilarious moments.
The Cornetto trilogy (Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, and The World's End), all hilarious on their own and even more so when baked.
Dazed and Confused. Awesome coming of age movie set in the 70's with lots of pot and hilarious shenanigans.
Any Cohen brothers movie, specifically The Big Lebowski, is a great movie to watch high.

Personally i watch katt williams stand up comedy or Mike epps because theyre super funny. Movieswise i dive into street kings (keanu reeves), training day (Denzel) thats what i like, unless its a get baked friday night with the Mrs then pineapple express, next friday, usual cult classics, the other woman (cameron diaz, couples retreat etc..) ;) try this. go to google type in movies like e.g "pineapple express" and it will suggest similar genre movies with a good list.
Wreck it Ralph 2, Bumblebee, Monty Pythons the Meaning of Life, Labyrinth, Never Ending Story, Petes Dragon, Time Bandits, Flash Gordon theres tons more.
If you fancy a jumpy, what the fuck film I watched this the other week high, really enjoyable, and alot of what the fuck moments.
Currently on netflix
Currently on netflix
I love a bit of Rick & Morty when I'm stoned, but when it comes to films, the dafter the better. Recently watched Harold & Kumar go to Whitecastle. By no means a classic, but enjoyable while high.
Any Tarantino film (Django is great!), Matrix 1 & 2, Fight Club, Star Wars episodes 1 -6, most of the MCU infinity saga films, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Leaving Las Vegas, Con Air, The Rock, Face/Off, Deja Vu, The Kingdom, Seven, Shawshank Redemption, The Shining, Forrest Gump, Terminator 1 & 2, Any John Woo film (Broken Arrow is a particular favourite), John Wick 1 & 2, Goodfellas, The Departed, The Big Short, Dark Knight trilogy, Interstellar, Inception, Mission Impossible films (probs skip 3), Demolition Man, Die Hard 1 - 4, Silence of the Lambs, jesus I could go on.....
Watched it baked as hell on the weekend, never felt so spiritually connected to a rabbit before, but he was my bro and I loved him haha
Enter The Void.
The movie is based on a criminal that lives in Tokyo with his sister who is a prostitute/stripper.
You watch the entire movie from the criminal’s perspective which makes you live the movie.
He uses drugs like DMT which are reflected directly into the movie so you feel think you feel them too (depends on how high you are ahaa).
This is just the first half of the movie as something happens.
Then in the second half, it’s a hauntingly beautiful psychedelic experience and you watch the rest as his spirit. You go in and out his physical and spiritual world of existence. In the physical he watches people he cares about like his sister. But, in the spiritual world he goes back to his childhood and re-lives his trauma/experiences that moulded him.
If you haven’t heard of it, this probably sounds mad. It definitely is!!! The first time I watched it I was off my nut on acid while smoking bud and fuck me… unbelievable.
Whoever reads this and watches. Just know - You either react well or not. I have recommended it many times and I know a people that will never ever watch it again..

Surprised no one has mentioned half baked yet classic stoner movie with Dave chapel
If you have Netflix love death robots is a few series about different stories, vinland saga but unfortunaly season 2 is only subbed, ready player one is a wicked film I rewatched free guy earlier with a weed pen and was good also the whole dragonball super series on wco and if your actually a dragon ball fan but fancy a change team four star do sum seriously funny skit episodes a violent man with pat tate pretty much anything with him is worth a watch tho sorry rambling am high
LD&R as an anthology is superb. Its visually stunning and the writing is incredibly creative. In a world full of remakes and reboots it restored my faith in tv/film. Cannot recommend highly enough.
I watched doctor strange on the big screen whilst baked off my face. The visuals were majestic. And of course, the classics, Big Lebowski and peter sellers film; The Party.
Thought about this post n remembered a good movie. Idle hands , if I remember there getting high n his hand is killing people or something
A series and not a movie but I watched all 3 seasons of "The Boyz" over Xmas and was baked at every sitting and it's the funnest time I've had in a long time. Good movie for me is a proper good documovie
Been getting into some David Lynch recently whilst in the zone. Mulholland Drive I can highly reccomend
Watched Seinfeld standup from 1998 & at times, laughed uncontrollingly (is that a word). Everything is funnier with weed. Just got a fire stick so amused for awhile
Tom Hardy’s - Venom
I was dabbing some MJConcentrate shatter when I watched this and it was awesome!

inherent vice - neo-noir movie about a stoner detective set in the 70s. pretty self-explanatory to watch when baked
birdman or (the unexpected virtue of ignorance) - follows this washed up actor who used to play a superhero in big blockbusters back in the 90s, who's trying to regain recognition by directing and starring in a broadway play, but is constantly tormented by the voice of "birdman". what really brings the film home is the filming techniques - they made it look like the whole film was shot in one take, and there's lots of generally beautiful scenes (as well as an homage to enter the void!)
smiley face - gregg araki movie about stoner anna farris having a series of misadventures across los angeles
the evil dead ii - c'mon, it's sam raimi and bruce campbell at their best. if you aren't too big on the scares then watch army of darkness instead

Hey Biggas. I was lucky enough to win Mushbar's generous recent giveaway and wanted to follow up with a review.
I joined LB to buy weed and hash mainly, I have used mushrooms in the past but not for quite a while. I've had a mixed history with mushrooms as I fucking hate eating them, the taste, the texture just don't work for me at all. As a result I tend to wolf them down as quickly as possible just to get that part over with. Sometimes that has meant I have taken way too much at once and led to longer trips than I'd have liked. I've never had a bad trip as such, but sometimes by the 6th/7th hour I've had enough and it can get tiring. This is not the review of someone with a lot of recent 'shroom experience.
The bar arrived on Saturday morning in excellent condition, it was packed well and in flawless condition. I had a few mates over on Saturday as the mrs was out for the night and we split the bar between us, three of us split it evenly (two rows/eight blocks each). One of my mates wolfed the lot at once and I just ate half along with my other mate. It tastes really nice, not only do you not taste or notice the 'shrooms but the chocolate is really nice.
The giggly phase started really quickly, especially so for the person who did it all at once. Within 15 minutes or so we were all feeling the effects to once extent or another, I had forgotten how amazing it feels when you're coming up on them. The two of us that had some left finished the rest, as my other mate was talking about visuals and we weren't getting any. Within 15 minutes of eating the rest they started, nothing too intense at first; colours were more vibrant etc. It built in intensity, it's hard to describe it effectively, but it took me to an amazing place mentally. I was laughing a lot and just felt at peace in a way I hadn't for a while. I'd say overall it was a solid three hour or so trip, which for me is about the perfect length. Has anyone ever eaten a whole one of these in one go? Would love to know what that was like.
In conclusion if you're looking to get into 'shrooms again, even if it's just a one-off nostalgia trip then these bars are great. Especially if you are not a fan of consuming mushrooms in their natural form. I have been reading a lot about microdosing on LB and these would be perfect for it. I would have thought a whole bar would be a lot even for the more experienced psychonauts. They are great in a social setting, everyone was together enough to hold a conversation. Most of the time.
Thanks for running this competition Mushbar, I know where I'll be heading the next time I fancy a trip. Also thanks to LB and the amazing vendors and biggas, this really is a great site.

As a result I tend to wolf them down as quickly as possible just to get that part over with. Sometimes that has meant I have taken way too much at once and led to longer trips than I'd have liked. I've never had a bad trip as such, but sometimes by the 6th/7th hour I've had enough and it can get tiring. This is not the review of someone with a lot of recent 'shroom experience.
The bar arrived on Saturday morning in excellent condition, it was packed well and in flawless condition. I had a few mates over on Saturday as the mrs was out for the night and we split the bar between us, three of us split it evenly (two rows/eight blocks each). One of my mates wolfed the lot at once and I just ate half along with my other mate. It tastes really nice, not only do you not taste or notice the 'shrooms but the chocolate is really nice.
The giggly phase started really quickly, especially so for the person who did it all at once. Within 15 minutes or so we were all feeling the effects to once extent or another, I had forgotten how amazing it feels when you're coming up on them. The two of us that had some left finished the rest, as my other mate was talking about visuals and we weren't getting any. Within 15 minutes of eating the rest they started, nothing too intense at first; colours were more vibrant etc. It built in intensity, it's hard to describe it effectively, but it took me to an amazing place mentally. I was laughing a lot and just felt at peace in a way I hadn't for a while. I'd say overall it was a solid three hour or so trip, which for me is about the perfect length. Has anyone ever eaten a whole one of these in one go? Would love to know what that was like.
In conclusion if you're looking to get into 'shrooms again, even if it's just a one-off nostalgia trip then these bars are great. Especially if you are not a fan of consuming mushrooms in their natural form. I have been reading a lot about microdosing on LB and these would be perfect for it. I would have thought a whole bar would be a lot even for the more experienced psychonauts. They are great in a social setting, everyone was together enough to hold a conversation. Most of the time.
Thanks for running this competition Mushbar, I know where I'll be heading the next time I fancy a trip. Also thanks to LB and the amazing vendors and biggas, this really is a great site.
I'm sold! Sounds like the ideal alternative to scoffing down sheep-piss-soaked fungi from some farmer's field.

Im assuming that most vendors are using royal mail so this post is for everyone who has ever had a problem with royal mail.
Next day delivery guaranteed by 1pm is what we are using, its payable by cash however quite costly.(£6.85 to £11) depending on weight of item.
On that note.. NDD has the most successful rate of delivery within uk to uk and i can confirm that as we have never had a parcel go missing or not arrive in the 5 years we have been operating.( not on LB)
So here is my question, how reliable is first class stamps and how consistent is it with the time of delivery. And has anyone ever attempted to use services that allow you to go to your local shop and collect.. like a click and collect service. If so would people be comfortable even using a click and collect service? Or locker collection services?

We are the Kings of Logistics JW!!
First-class always makes it, the click-and-collect will work you just need to book the service at the customer's nearest location (supermarket).
The downside of it is there are light-fingered part-time workers who will be dipping, so would say for less stress always deliver to customers' addresses.
Best overall service is 24hr tracked 100% as there are less security breaches (0%), we offer Special, 24hr tracked private courier & European fully tracked.
I am thinking about offering a course on perfect stealth delivery to vendors for $500 the "secrets of perfect delivery by GT" the do's and don't s lol

could potentially buy with btc, i know there are sites that allow buying postage with btc but with high volume of orders it becomes time consuming paying with btc and waiting for confirmations could sometimes push the cut off time back a couple hours.
having to wait for confirmations close to cut off times are jarring and cause many headaches.

There is a service that you can buy a prepaid visa debit card with BTC. If you then use that to buy the online postage.
Use a label printer and then find a priority post box. Those usually get collected and then taken to a central depot. Also increases your opsec as if any of your parcels are compriomised they could have came from a large area, whereas there is no pretending it's not you posting on cctv at the post office.
I think some of the priority post boxes are last collection at 6.30pm and anything in there 24hr tracked usually makes it next day.
The benefit of 24hr over next day signed is that if the box can fit through a letter box the postie can take a picture of it going through as confirmation of delivery.
Pretty sure for signed the door must be answered. (although I could be wrong)
Cant find the one I know is KYC free, but here is an article on a few BTC cards. Some (most exchange ones) are linked to you, and others you may need to register with. That's were small amounts and fake details *may* be useful.
https://99bitcoins.com/bitcoin-debit-card/
Anyone had any use of these or know the one I mean that's virtual card details and just add BTC to it with no personal details given?

More than welcome, a few people have reached out to say thanks. Heres another one, if anyone can add to this list please do:
https://thebitcoincompany.com on their twitter they say they work in UK, but to try with small amounts as not all merchants accept.
If I read the terms correctly the time you need to prove id is when you want to cash in your points. If you don't do that, you don't need to give id.
As I say I could be wrong as not used them but pretty sure you will work out a way to use them discretly. Good luck!

Good on you for offering free delivery.
There’s some vendors on here who only offer payment delivery which seems a bit of a pisstake from where I’m standing.
You offer a choice which makes me more inclined to want to buy from you (and your decent ratings) best of luck and thanks for your service!

I've always offered free delivery until RM got so naff that I decided to offer recorded delivery. Some customers want that guarantee.
And I completely understand that, my post was that some vendors ONLY offer paid delivery or NDD which is fine but as a customer you’re locked into that extra $7 or whatever on top of your U.K. order which if the seller is U.K. based seems a bit shit.
You can get cheap tracked second class uk delivery which is almost as quick as first class these days, so postage costs shouldn’t be an issue.
My go to overseas supplier does free uk delivery from the Middle East beating U.K. sellers hands down consistently. A lesson to be learned there….

Just thought I'd chip in, I recently had a NDD stolen by the post man, he insisted he have it to us but signed it himself and didn't even make more of our house number. Post office don't give a fuck, vendor can see it's paid for so I'm out and can't do anything. On the flip side I never had first class post go missing, might take a week but it always gets here. I'm thinking of getting a po box now if it's so easy for post to get nicked
Wow, we have just been through a very similar issue, we have had parcels come in from USA and the delivery driver stole the package and unfortunately nothing can be done because it would be an in house issue for them, no pictures were taken and the company just goes off what is told by the driver.
Its sad but this is the reality. People will steal your shit if given an opportunity.

WANT vendors for first time buyer
Anyone got suggestions for a first time buyer in the UK? Seen a few vendors say no first time buyers and I'm wanting to be sure I actually get what I pay for.
Established vendors, Dr Greenthumb, diuk,The green team ,pistach. As toking says give the vendor a message before hand.good luck and enjoy
Hey mate

Intercepted Parcel (dispute?)
Hi guys/girls, I recently had a parcel intercepted about a week ago and a few days ago the police turned up at my door. Long story short they questioned me wether I ordered some herbal tea remedy from Wembley (seriously lol) and after consistently denying it then left without further question, were actually fairly reasonable chaps for once. They said they were called by the local DO because of the smell which honestly baffles me as 1) I’ve used this vendor and ordered the same thing perhaps 6/7 times before?
2) usually the stealth is absolutely sublime and I almost couldn’t believe it was caught.
My main question is that I tried to contact the seller numerous times and every time I’ve been blanked, it’s a very well known/reputable vendor and their shake is great (if it turns up..) my question is am I correct to dispute this? The vendor replied once and said ‘sorry about that something must have poked through’ but won’t reply to any more messages.. just thought I’d ask people to see where I stand in this? Thanks for reading x

Shitty death, to get caught out twice is outrageous bad luck- you have some eagle eyed hound nosed jobsworth git working at your sorting office!
I agree with others that you need to find a vendor that will work with you on impossible stealth. There’re some who will.
It’s naff that the vendor has cut off comms. Yes dispute it- it will be settled by auto settlement Borg based on reputation. You won’t get 100% because it can’t be proven but you will get a %
Good luck👍

Hey mate, sorry that happened to you, sounds like a real pain in the dick. Im glad the bizzies left you alone :)
As far as I know from what I've read on LB thats exactly why the dispute system is here, to protect us in situations like these. Seizures and missing parcels are an (albeit rare) inevitability and I reckon sellers know that. A seller should talk to you to arrive at a solution you're both happy with, if that's possible.
Depending how much time is left in your dispute window, give the seller some more time to respond as they are all busy people. Just be careful not to let your dispute window pass by if you're not satisfied with whatever happens moving forward.
Good luck pal

Hi mate, thanks for the response. I’m glad you cleared that up because that’s what I was thinking but the reassurance is great.
Forgot to add that this is my second seizure, very luckily to a different address (other seizure was about 18 months ago) it would seem there’s a proper jobsworth at my local depot because I know local friends who have had parcels seized before too ☹️

Fuck man :/ Maybe something you could mention to vendors? You never know they could sort some extra stealth out for you. I once had LSD delivered to me many years ago from a vendor on the Silk Road inside a pair of shoes! Took me ages to find it (discreetly hidden under the insoles of the shoes lol).
You could also try ordering hash, less stinky maybe?

Sorry to hear about your situation,
like previously said, it doesn't take much to provide good stealth.
I had a drop around a month ago from a newish vendor with a good reputation, 10/10 reviews, however you could smell the bud through the mailer, very surprised it got to me.
It was only heat sealed once and in half a box with cellotape on!
When I Sent them a DM, they just said they don't usually have issues with the smell and it must have been the box that wasn't tapped up properly!
Shame cause the bud was lovely but scared to use them again in the future, as stealth is paramount to me.
Dispute it and good luck buddy.

Received an ounce from Shroom Of The Loom a few days ago and the stealth was next level. Even I wasn't sure if it was my weed. Nice large box made it look like any kinda generic
parcel, taped up and double wrapped, and the weed tightly vacuum sealed inside an opaque smell proof bag!
Definitely more premium than the old heat seal bag boxed up and in a jiffy bag.
big ups SOTL :)

Have to agree on this wafflebanger.
SOTL’s stealth is on a different level .
His descriptions on products are right on point also , you don’t even need to read reviews with his stuff .

I don't understand how this happens, apart from lack of care in creating the parcel.
A properly heat sealed mylar bag with the air squeezed out by hand before the heatseal does not leak any smell.
Stick that inside a small self assemble cardboard box in a bubble jiffy envelope. Bob's your uncle and no possible reason to open.
First class large letter stamp in post box is likely both the safer and cheaper option.
I suspect the vendor will likely have an idea of why it was seized, would be nice if they could be a little less vague about it, given their carelessness has cost you a visit from the law.
But unfortunately, as this is not amazon, admitting to making a mistake will probably cost the vendor sales.
Difficult situation and you have my sympathy.

As a vendor myself I'll always bend over backwards to make amends. The one thing I'd never do is sever communications. If an item is seized it must be down to inadequate packaging, otherwise there's surely no reason for suspicion. I vacuum seal then bubblewrap before sealing in a tough polythene bag. It's unusually bad luck to have had two items seized.
Hard question to answer. I've never had a failed delivery - so far. Occasionally late, but I can accept that if they're not being seized.
I've only recently started offering postage to the EU, which means packages have to go through customs, so it'll be interesting to see how that pans out.

Not what you need, good stealth is down to the vendor really. This topic actually made me realize I was far too accommodating recently when an empty box turned up via special. Vendor didn't believe me, then did, but now gone quiet after I sent a different address for reship. I did leave a 10/10 review and comment what happened, but think I had drunk too much strong Kenyan coffee, as it's poor stealth that's going to get it spotted and on reflection that's simply down to the vendor/not that difficult to do good stealth.
Not the same as a seizure of course that's even more not cool, I hope this gets sorted out for you!

Couldn't imagine work without it. Of course I can't imagine anything without it. It's been too long.
But what about you biggaz? What kind of work works a bit stoned?
But what about you biggaz? What kind of work works a bit stoned?
Correct. I use CBD in the evenings and they have the same terpene profiles as regular THC weed. In the day I use CBDv and CBG.
Exactly this - a good solid sativa while working/needing to be out and about then once thats all over it's either hybrid (if afternoon) or straight to Indica if it's evening for a tranquil end
I'm an airline pilot and I couldn't ferry hundreds of people between continents unless I am so baked I'm having a whitey in the cockpit
😂 I just cannot work baked due to the massive responsibilities
It’s totally incompatible. Leisure time though is another story although I’m pretty strict self discipline wise
I take a few months break every once In a while to flush out my system and maintain mental health etc
Not everyone is gonna be the same
Works for me anyhoo…

All ropy lines of employment in recent years and I think cannabis use is the least of our worries well apart from dentist unless it’s Glennon Edward Engleman
There's no way in hell I could get baked at work, especially off my own crop. There'd be no way of hiding my red eyes, low levels of activity and insatiable appetite. On second thoughts, I think I've just myself every day.
I could do/have done my job stoned but I don’t see any point as I can’t really enjoy it when I’m working. I also don’t get people who you can smell have just smoked a fatty before getting on the bus at 7 in the morning. Don’t they ever actually wake up for the day?? I couldn’t do that lol.
I smoke at work to make it go faster, only reason and it works more social and can function if I don’t go crazy on a pen.m
Cliche, I know. But sativa day, Indi/hybrid night.
If only they knew it could be used as a catalyst for efficiency and productivity.
If only they knew it could be used as a catalyst for efficiency and productivity.
I have hardly ever smoked at work, probably 3 or 4 times in 23 years,I guess it depends on what type of person and job you do,I do bricklaying /groundworks/general building,what do others do?
If I'm honest with you I'd prefer not to say. I used to be very cavalier on lb but having seen the digital platforms change so rapidly over the last few years, I value my privacy and anonymity.
What I will say is that I'm self employed. Work 10-12+ days, 7 days, I have a family and my work is a mixture of non manual, hard manual and a lot of administrative tasking.
So, weed helps, a lot. I'm also married with children. We can do a lot in a day, on or off weed.
Guess as you said, depends on the the person and the job they do.
Peace be with you.

Absolutely screwing!! Didn't ever want to use the dispute button but here I am...
Been waiting nearly a 3 weeks for a shipment from Nero to arrive but none so far!!
The 1st attempt must have been seized so Nero offered a full reship, I obviously used a secondary address,, but still nothing,
To be fair to Nero he has offered a full refund when he's back but none the less I've had to dispute to protect my coin, only close to 100 but still don't stop the fact I didn't want to use it...

Aww m8 thats wounding . Thanks for the heads up tho . Saves me a lotta stress next week . Was looking at his strawberry cough as last time i had that stuff over here it was something else . Never mind . Hope you get it sorted ma man . 🤘
No ones blaming you nero . Customs are wankers there inlies the problem . Id love to order from you beleive me u got some nice products .
True... I've said I can only review 1/10 as there is nothing I can review,, only comms and as stated to Nero the review will clearly state that he has tried everything possible to satisfy the order and the low score is only for the fact I can't review thin air,
Do I want a dispute... Do I fuck! Am I tarnishing Neros rep... am I fuck!! I'm just being honest..

Just don't bother reviewing it? You ain't lost out on monies, know it's a pain in the arse but Nero has done all they can 🤷♂️
When disputing I believe the settlement Borg or whatever insists that a 1/10 score gets left
Don't take it personally on that side
Don't take it personally on that side
I unfortunately had to dispute a few times , and I can personally say that was not the case on any of those 3 occasions.
Are you talking before LB took over the dispute process?
I haven't had to dispute for years but I know someone who had to recently and that is what I was told they had to do
As I stated 🤷🏽

I disputed a order about 8 weeks ago, with a different vendor and nothing that you stated (about being pressurised to score a 1/10) took place.
Still, one out of ten is a proper kick in the nuts, especially when Nero is trying to make amends.
Your missing the point I am making I think
Maybe not in this case bit certainly in the past people I know who have disputed have been told that they "have" to leave 1/10 to get their coin back by whatever does that process
Now I don't know if that is the case here or not
But if you were being told by "refund Borg" that you can only have your money back if you leave a 1/10 , what would you do?
😝

You told him to go to dispute for his peace of mind
I'm telling you what the dispute Borg or whatever they are called tells accounts to do when they are disputing as far as I am aware
The fact you shipped,.reshipped and have offered a full refund is commendable and I am not in anyway agreeing with their score or posts here
I'm telling you what the dispute thing tells the person who's disputing to do

I give up
I'm sorry you have lost out here Nero
I tried to offer you an explanation on the 1/10 and also clearly stated that in this case that might not be the case
I have not at any time criticised your business practice or the way you have dealt with it
I have no idea why you are being defensive with me regarding this

this is the message i sent you bud admitting the 1\10 is low!

If you have nothing to review it should be N/A . If the vendor has been responsive and gave you peace of mind that he will refund or settle when he is able to the score should not be 1/10 . It should not be reviewed. Unless vendor has done you dirty
so going with that ill review 1 for comms 1 for reship and 1 for refund.... i find this to be fair,
and if it arrives (seriously doubt) ill eat my words and publically apologise!!
and if it arrives (seriously doubt) ill eat my words and publically apologise!!
So your order got seized he kindly re sent it out his own pocket and that got seized and then is even kind enough to give you a full refund after already losing out on 2 packs and your still gonna leave a bad review.
Wow good luck to anybody who sells to you in the future.

thanks bro... but in future ill stick to vendors that are UK based,, you know the ones ive used before lol..
appreciate your imput though!

I didn’t mean to sound like a dick mate but come on that is scummy leaving a bad review when you have lost out on what? A bit of time that’s all.
Who the fuck is hootan lol?
Who the fuck is hootan lol?
ive said in previous comments that i would clearly state in the review that all nero has done to fix the problem,
but its called a review.. not for comms only but for product,
ive stated he will get 1 for comms 1 for reship and 1 for refund thats fair or at least i think so.
and more to the point why was 2 parcels siezed????
thats seriously unlucky or bad packaging!! i dont know what it is im obviously speculating

But you got your money back mate just seems rough to do that to somebody that’s been by the sound of it nothing but helpful. Why bother reviewing it?
And yeah the seizures suck but it’s international post I’m sure that’s gotta go though the extra security checks and what not, the only reason iv always stuck to the uk.

I think 1/10 is a bit harsh m8 . As u said hes tried to resend and is going to refund you also i assume hes been i contact regarding the issues . So at least give him a 5 poor fella 😉
why stick the knife in then and give a 1 out of 10 when there's nothing to review they've been honest with you all the way then put a post up to tell everyone
I have had an order from Nero arrive before hence the reason I returned,
Don't think I'll reuse Nero again, it's a shame really as the Delta 8 I've had from him was really nice,

Shouldn't be leaving a 1/10 review if Nero has gone out of his way to reship and is even going to do a full refund. He's way out of pocket for that! I wouldn't expect a refund if he'd shipped out twice!

Is this mold?
Yup. Bud-rot. Get ruthless with the pruners and reduce humidity.

Is this mold?
Just about to start flushing in next few days but noticed just under one of the colas this... Is it mold? Maybe bud smothered in crystals? Is it nothing? No idea lol
Should I just chop it all or only this branch? It's not spread yet but like I said it was coming down by the weekend anyway
Looks a high amount of nitrogen in there too. You know bud Rod as you gently pull on a leaf and it just comes away
Maybe looks like too much nitrogen but could be due to a very low temperature when lights off here in Scotland. Cold temperature's turn leaves dark purple apparently.
High humidity, not enough dryback periods, high nitrogen, more moving air? Theres quite alot of things that could trigger it. But if you cut away affected areas and dont see it climbing up or spreading then its a good sign of recovery, if its still climbing/spreading then the plant is a goner and its too late to recover.
Hope this helps
Hope this helps
Sorry to say, Definetly looks like rot, can spread quick once spores release, You can get neutralising spray to deter it from spreading however its best to be cautious to not ruin the rest of your crop especially as your onto flushing it's too late.
Agree with Nero, Cut it down & remove it ASAP!
Hope the rest of your crop is looking good!
Agree with Nero, Cut it down & remove it ASAP!
Hope the rest of your crop is looking good!
The rest looking good. I'll chop this branch and start the flush. It's coco so hopefully a couple of days will do
Amen! Keep an eye on the rest of your crop during flush & hanging too to be extra cautious.
Extra tip if it's a big enough crop, Please let it dry sufficiently before curing & bagging hate to see this stuff turn in curing.
It looks fire though! 10/10 on looks

This is only my 3rd grow. How long should I ideally dry then cure? I didn't cure much before but smoke was still good
In my opinion curing for 3 weeks minimum is perfect, However this ranges from plant to plant.
Drying however should be around a week, However this is the key part of the process, Make sure the room is warm with enough NEW air constantly circulating & old air escaping.
Seen enough people make the mistake of heat with no air, Which actually creates more humidity leading to further rot.
(Warm room with new constant flowing air & I reccomend you trim before hang due to how much moisture is already present)

I’ve always trimmed before I hang to dry (only grown a couple of times), can you normally do it after drying? Does it make it easier when dry? Most tedious part of the process…
Completely forgot to mention!
Grove bags at the end of curing are the ONE! keep that dank from moulding up!

Thanks pal. Was waiting til the trichomes on the bud started showing amber before flushing but that's now out of the question. They started going amber on the leaves tho so hopefully still be good smoke?
No worries mate!
Will still be a good smoke, surprisingly it usually just makes for a trippier high when the trichomes haven't changed to cloudy amber, alot of people usually mistake this for a stronger high.
Keep your head up mate! It looks 👌

First time I heard Miles Davis on sketches of Spain i could feel the sun and smell the olive trees, Rare a record truly transports you so effectively.
Very good call... got to add grand wazoo and Joe's garage to the list. The keyboard solo on cyborg is genius
Shit yeah! Moon Safari was great when it landed in the late 90's and still sounds every bit as fresh today. I'm also partial to a bit of Junip, a Swedish folk rock band.
The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
It’s a great Tolkien Album!

Takes me back to the early 90's......that and Moon Safari by Air stand out for me. I listened to Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld by the Orb a lot back then too. I still roll this one out - another great toking album.
My guitar teacher switched me on to these guys way back. Nowadays, I appreciate this much more than I did then!
Lucky enough to see Ozrics at several free festivals in late eighties and nineties, once so caned on micro dots I thought I was watching floyd from the meddle era.
Great band , nice guys.
In similar vein try the ;porcupine tree’
Great band , nice guys.
In similar vein try the ;porcupine tree’
My go to is Pink Floyd ‘The Dark Side of the Moon’, followed by Dave Matthews ‘Before These Crowded Streets’ or ‘Under the Table and Dreaming’ and First Aid Kit ‘Ruins’
Its a personal choice and each to their own taste however if there is a list of great albums to listen to when stoned then Fleetwood Mac - Rumours has to be on it.If you have never heard it then you are missing out on one of the greatest albums ever made.
Rumours takes on a totally new life when stoned. I wish I had the songwriting gene!
+1 for Rumours - there is a great documentary about the making of it...well, about the whole band, how they formed etc. They were basically hating each other when that album was made (which is obvious when you listen to the lyrics). Have a look for it on the iPlayer - well worth a look
can't beat a bit of BOC
Saw Phaeleh at Kendal Calling 10 years ago and he played this album in full. Been in love with it ever since. My go to.
This is a bad boy for chilling to, and the artist not very well known so give it a whirl.
K&D Sessions and DJ Kicks albums are legendary!

Waiwan is my favourite ‘unknown’ artist - really low key releases that are mind blowing. Got a couple of his remixes on vinyl will try and find them and upload here!
You have great taste sir!
You have great taste sir!
Discovered Double Negative by Low last year and have listened to it whilst toking many times now. Went straight into my stoner music list... Sounds awesome on vinyl..
Thanks for that tip…I keep defaulting to ‘Things We Lost In The Fire’ but will play this today after a good toke on Smoggy’s Mimosa! 🤤🤗
From avenged sevenfold through to chopin and everything in between. This is really awesome to listen to. If you want a nice hour musical journey one of the best albums I could listen to from start to finish is Smashing Pumpkins, Siamese Dream, and it's not traditionally my fav music. Or anything Led Zep.
Great album alright,recently rediscovering how good the klf-chill out album is,well worth a listen,albeit a little less electronic but ye,cant go wrong with the k&d sessions either!
Haven't listened to the K&D sessions for ages! Well thats my morning soundtrack sorted.
Strange Cargo 3 by William Orbit is good toking album.

Or as we used to call it....the ultimate album come down album! Not that this happens anymore, but...put this on as the last album of the night/morning after a night of raving and loads of mdma! Perfect!! Thanks for reminding me of this, been about 15 years since I listened to this beast!
You know it - that's how I first discovered it too. And yeah, It's been waaaayyyyy too long since I had one of those nights. As soon as the world gets back to normal I'm going to recreate 'the old days' :-)
Any, post Syd, Floyd for me- as long as it’s an album start to finish, for the full experience
Yeah, you need the full experience. Imagine a single from Dark side or animals. Even worse, wish you were here. Damn pesky kids don’t know what a single is. Bah humbug.

"We're Only In It For The Money" the Mothers Of Invention, released 1968. Works well on acid too.
Speaking as an old hippy back in the day it had to be "We're Only in it For The Money" from Zappa and the Mothers. Really fucked with your head.
In the last few months I’ve discovered Ben Böhmer. I find his music and mixes to be superb listens while high. Mainly upbeat tempos contrasted with deep bass and uplifting beats. Give it a try ???

Just watched 10 minutes of that - awesome! I'm an amateur music producer and love tweaking the knobs and dials so I will be watching this in full over the weekend - thanks for sharing
I'll throw this in... A bit obscure... Gets the old red eyes pumping and gets a nice on the go, too.
lol use to flat out play this. tried to listen again recently though and I feel it hasn't aged well. the beats aren't great!
It's all relative I guess eh! I still love it personally and feel it holds up well after 22 years....but Jesus, reminds me how old I am!

How do you store your bud?
I use Kilner clip top jars (amazon)
0.125 litre for half oz
0.35 Litre for an oz
I then have the jars in a food lock bags but the smell keeps leaking out.
Not sure how as i filled up the jars with water, locked it, tipped it upside down and nothing came out.
Dont get me wrong, Pistash's Amnesia Haze is amazing and smells like heaven but WOW it has a strong smell.
Any advice/help in this would be much appreciated.

I keep my personal smoke it glass jars in my fridge, the jars get burped daily and the result is beautiful cured buds
For my personal I go no frills using old jam jars (cleaned of course) in a shoe box in a drawer. Does the trick me. It’s in my office in the loft though so smell isn’t too much of an issue
Same idea here. My personal stash ends up in repurposed coffee jars and gets aired every couple of days. My sale items are in airtight Kilner jars which get vented every day. Both options are good for containing the scent.
I would have hoped that the Kilner clip tops would keep the smell in. not sure about the screw top lids versions if the clip wont work.
Mylar bags - My 1st few orders on LB came in those. Might need to put the jars in those bags... Now to find a seller that sells a few and not 50...

only thing I can think is that the stank passing through water is making it smell stronger like a fart in a bath, clip top kilners are usually 100%. mine certainly was until it seppuku'd and I replaced it with one of those anti-uv screw top jars from amazon
You need Mylar bags. Food lock bags don’t cut the mustard;)
Also water molecules are larger than mono terpenes in a gas state;) i think
I personally put a boveda in a dark glass jar with the weed and put that in a Mylar bag.
I’m sure there are superior ways but that’s pretty good for me;)

Is it ok to store weed loose in a jar alongside a boveda pack? Also I’m getting the impression from this thread that I should open the lid and air it every day? How long for? Sorry for all the questions always just left it in the bag it comes in until reading this and another recent topic about storage 🤪

Paid for an order at 5am. Its now after 5pm and no update for the item being sent.
Paid for Next Day Delivery - I hope they are just a bit slow in updating the order.
Anyone else had an experience like this?
Can you guess the vender?
I am not calling them out yet because its not been that long and they could be busy.
With postal strikes I hope I get this before the weekend.
I will update once my order has been updated.
Think im too used to Amazon order updates

Pretty sure Royal Mail are striking today and tomorrow so you might not get it until Saturday, I’m in the same boat, waiting on 2 orders, frustrating innit?!
I just hope I don't have to meet a roadman to top-up till the delivery.
I hear that parcels are being prioritised over letters.
So we could be in luck

Strikes aside, service from RM can be hit-and-miss at the best of times. 1st Class ain't what it used to be. I've had a couple of orders take up to seven days🙄
I'm waiting on a NDD from the 23rd, although alot of that is to do with the vendors mistake.
Some vendors mark their parcels as sent in the evening, for example Strainburys mark theirs as sent around 9pm, Canadian Imports also tend to mark them in the evening.
Even if it does get posted today you'll be extremely lucky to get it tomorrow as there's strikes, but fingers crossed 🤞

For me it's all about knowing the collection times at local boxes. All my orders received before 5pm go in a box with a 6pm collection, whereas orders after 5pm tend to go in another box with a 7am collection. I certainly won't mark an order as sent until it's wrapped and stamped.
if you want to avoid RM next time please use GreenTech's private courier. It's DPD and delivered usually next day. No bullshit delays or waiting dude
Sent them a message, no reply.
Still no update to the order
One of their last reviews is "1/10 No comms, No Weed"
:-/
I really hope I have not lost my monthly budget on this. or is this paranoia because i smoke too much!!
Bit the bullet and ordered something from Radar Breeder as never had an issue with them.

We are all going to have to manage our expectations and accept that vendors want us to get our product as soon as possible….
We do 💯 . But trying to keep the masses satisfied and happy with Royal Mail is a challenge in it’s self tho 😂
There's no excuse for poor communication with customers. If a delivery is going to be delayed - no matter what the reason - I'll always make sure my customer is kept in the know. If the delay in sending is unusually long - which has yet to happen with me - I'd throw in an extra g by way of apology.
Finally got an update to the order.
Supposed to come on Saturday - But this I could blame on RM.
Hope it comes today

working at home makes me a weed addict
cuase i can basically. work isn't effected at least not negatively but tolerance, weight and debt all headed up as well.
anyone else have this issue and how do you deal?
anyone else have this issue and how do you deal?
Pandemic sent me into a weed spiral not only could I do my job to the same standard but I actually got promoted to an advisory position so no work just giving advice on the phone. This made it worse but I found myself dropping two spliffs before work had started that soon became over 7g a day. That’s like college years and I became a little lazy work started to melt into home life being lit all day every day starts to become addictive but also routine. Every activity involved rolling one, like at college we drove nowhere without smoking a spliff in the car journeys were not measured in miles but how many pre rolled spliffs were required.
Now the only way out of this is to earn your spliffs unless I’ve been out clubbing probably not earned a 6am spliff (I’m to old to go clubbing anymore) so I had to set myself challenges as work wasn’t and despite having 4 kids and a part time wife home was boring.
I also got free Apple Music with new phone so went back to my 90s house and drum & base days and started walking. It’s kind of developed into a forest gump crossed with that terminator in T2 action but I found this a massive release from the stresses and an excuse not to get straight up and smoke. Soon enough smoking was back to after work. It’s mind over matter the exercise and music helped house music helps the mind body and soul before you know it you have done 5 miles and your back at the front door not knowing how you got there. After you have done things spliff is more rewarding and you need less. Don’t get me wrong weekends can sometimes contain a blowout when you blaze all day.

You could try CBD bud instead. I don't know if you like to smoke, vape, etc. but I find that smoking it helps stop me from reaching for my stash box during the day.
It's available on here but also via other UK sites and some stores, it's hemp flower rather than marijuana so it's all perfectly legit.
Looks like proper weed and actually tastes ok too, considering. It doesn't get you high or stoned as such but I definitely felt an effect from it, almost like my body was a bit stoned but my head was completely clear. It's a nice feeling and scratches the itch for a while at least.
There are CBD vape carts available too if you don't smoke, although I haven't tried those so can't comment on them.
I tried CBD oil for a while and didn't feel any benefit but the actual flower itself seems much more potent and I always have some CBD bud in my store now.
Might be worth a try if you haven't already. It's not that much cheaper so maybe not going to save you all that much but should help with the tolerance if nothing else. Good luck anyway!

He’ll yeah mate!
I blaze from like 5am 😂 my addiction came long before wfh though and smoke to ease ptsd and other shit as much better in my experience than meds from docs.
I’d second Cbd weed, you’ll still Chong as much as normal but not be drooling in meetings 🤣

Yeah I'm in the same boat my man...I work from home and have done for 2 and a half years now. Like yourself I could do my job well enough with a lil joint or two during the day but it's become an issue and with all the energy issues on top...well i'm bleeding cash left, right and centre.
I don't have many solutions for you but maybe one that can help. So someone mentioned CBD flower...I would suggest Delta 8 or HHC...some people on the net have talked about being illegal and yada yada. It's not and in fact have bought a total of about 150g of Delta 8 and HHC hemp flower.
Due to it being hemp the legal status is changed somewhat. It's treated more like a commercial/industrial material than anything else.
I would recommend hempiregardens.com if you're looking for some legal smoke that might hit that spot during work...I refer to the effect as a pale shadow of a stone. You don't get monged but it does chill you out and tastes similar to weed...they also do vapes and CBD stuff.
It's helped keep me sane when I don't have weed or need to not smoke it. As for the other issues I'm still trying to find a solution myself but some habits are almost impossible to kick so good luck bud!

My mate swears by Delta 8 and HHC. That said, my advice would be to get a strain that's leans heavily towards sativa and go steady with it. Sour Diesel is a good choice for focus - assuming you don't go too hard.
if it feels like an impulsive thing try to substitute a different action to feed it.
eat something nutritious and not delicious the next time you wanna smoke when you're already kinda stoned. it will feed the impulse without making you binge on food.

I recently got made redundant, but before that had started using carts during the day... As I am job hunting and they really got me high, I've just had to take a break from them for a while. I have very little self control.
I don't work from home but I know where you're coming from. Try and apply a smidge of discipline, for example, no weed until 12pm, then a reward, no weed until 4pm, then a reward. That's how I tackle it.
I’ve been hit by it too! I started consciously thinking about what it’s doing to my lungs/body, money etc. if that doesn’t help then good luck in your search buddy!

I frigging love my Wolkenkraft FX Mini. Sexy as hell. Works brilliantly. Can be used with a bubbler (basically a mini bong - sold separately). Cost me £100, but it's a quality bit of kit. Most importantly, it's well worth spending a bit more to get a convection vape rather than conduction.
Nice!
I just bought the TM2 and am really loving it (game changer!) but yours is a third of the price! 😻

My Mighty has served me loyally for 2 years but is now being retired with a Long Service Good Conduct Medal 🏅

- 3 second On Demand heat which is incredible.
- Massive temperature range including ‘BEAST’ mode😳…and you can re-programme them further!
- Slot in battery with spares under a tenner.
- Full convection
- Easy micro-dosing (variable load capacity, can work on crumbs)
- Looks and feels wonderful- zero plastic!
- Glass & Titanium mouthpieces included. Other alternatives including long stem.
It calls itself an ‘Extraction Device’, and I think that’s the main difference- it can deliver a massive hit in seconds and flavours are great- strains I’m very familiar with taste much more individual and vivid in the TM2.
Clouds are ridiculous 😶🌫️😶🌫️😶🌫️

Shenmue on the Sega Dreamcast, written directed and produced by Japanese genius Yu Suzuki. Beautiful and way ahead of it's time.
A teenth of Afghan black, Ericsson T18 on silent, while i roamed the streets of Japan. Those were the days!

Have you played the new Shenmue? Shenmue 3 I think? I played a load of the original on Dreamcast back in the day and bought the remastered version for PS4 that had 1&2 on it (wasn't as good as I remembered) intresting to know if 3 is any good.
Old School- I used to love the original Silent Hill on Playstation, thought that was a really clever game. Also MYST.
Silent hill for sure, was Syked for new one coming out with Kojima onboard but alas, it wasn’t to be
Loads of rumors about a reboot for the series but I'm not sure I even want it if Yamaoka isn't onboard. Kojima's take would've been interesting, though. Shame we never got more than a demo.
I assume this is an old post but if you haven’t already check out The Callisto Protocol!!! From the creators of dead space, looks like top tier sci fi horror and is set for release at the end of 2022 (although will probably be delayed until next year, you know how these things go lol)
Bloody loved Silent Hill. Creepy AF. Used the machine's limitations really well by clouding the streets with an eerie fog. I still recall hearing the footsteps of those fucked-up things but not be able to see them. Remember the cut-away sequence when the nurse staggered towards you?
100% the witcher. Managed to get every gwent card aswell even when you could very easily miss a few card through wrong decisions.
Wow! I totally forgot about LSL. I bloody loved all the Sierra adventure games when I was but a young lad.
For me Heavy Rain really stands out, also Shenmue 2 and LA Noir, all so far ahead of their time.
Yeah, it's amazing. So atmospheric. Only problem was, it was supposed to be a two or three part dlc but the creator gave up on it after the first one so it never got finished. As far as I know he gave up on making video games after that. If you can get hold of the first part tho, I'd highly recommend it
There are so many...
Witcher 3 has to be up there with the best along with all 3 bioshock games. Halo 1-3 & the latest god of war. Here hoping cyberpunk 2077 can join them too!

Metal Gear Solid on the PSone blew my mind, the other MGS got a bit preachy but the PSone version had everything, great game play, great stelf sections, good action sequences etc etc I still think about the bit where Psycho Mantis moves your controller, freaked me out.
GTA 4, more recently Red Dead Redemption 2 and The Last of us was also pretty epic, I’m looking forward to part 2.
Bioshock 1 was drippingly beautiful and draws you in. Dark room, good thumping surround sound cranked up, roll a few fattys. Great replay capability with the good or bad decisions and the array of different weapons and potions. One of the finest pieces of electronic entertainment to this day, including films.
Noteables: Deus ex, last of us, elder scrolls,Halo 1.
Its when you play them as well i think. There are more advanced games now, better ai, graphics etc, but such a wow factor for me at the time when i was a fanatic.

Metro Exodus is pretty intense. I agree, Bioshock Infinite was pretty awesome. Saying that Bioshock 1+2 were pretty raw. Best plot ever, though? Has to be 'The Secret of Monkey Island 2'.
Like many others, 'last of us' will always stay in the mind and I'm eager to play no2.
So many others worthy of note, but I'm also big fan of Horizon on ps4, such an excellent story and characters and possibly my fave of this gen.
Honorable shout out to 'Days Gone' which never got the praise it deserved imo.

I started playing “Days gone” when it came out on free to play. I would’ve paid for it if I’d have known it was that good! I’m hooked and I never thought I would be.
Max Payne 2: Fall of Max Payne - I like that noiresque atmosphere, the music, the over the top melancholic atmosphere... It harmonised well with my mood back then...
This^ elder scrolls by far the most immersive games. Skyrim is over 10 years old and is still un matched, probably never will be. Well over 100 hours game play or unlimited hours if you don't bother with main quest lines.
Life Is Strange
It really shows how the slightest thing can completely change the reality you get stuck in
It makes you contemplate the cause and effect that lead to living in your current reality and how fragile everything we perceive is
Ain't played the game in years but I still fell so emotionally connected to it

Xenoblade Chronicles for me. I love good RPGs and this story was kinda unique and on top of that the Gameplay was really fun too. Sadly the follow up Games were kinda meh...
Got to be final fantasy 9 I remember playing it as a 10 yr old and was super emotional lol
The last of us, for sure. What an emotional journey. Really looking forward to the next one coming out. Can’t wait to dive into that. Really nice to have summat to look forward to in these trying times. Much love.
Metal Gear Solid Series was excellent. Loved God of wars. First Bioshock was awesome. Assassins creed Odyssey was decent enough!
It got shit on constantly but I fucking LOVED Destiny 1 and 2. The story was meh, but the game itself ran so smoothly and in my opinion was one of the best FPS games to come out in years. I did stop playing a few months back though because I just had nothing left to do in it.
Story wise either Last of Us or God of War 5.
Story wise either Last of Us or God of War 5.
D1 and d2 played well but they would, its a bungie shooter. But they felt hollow which is a shame considering the hipe before 1. The lore is really good tho if you can peice it together. But it should be in the game more. D1 tied me over quite nicely between borderlands 2 and 3 lol and I met some awesome people playing it
Literally just bought Shadowkeep like a week ago. Got my Titan to 965 so far. Now for the Warlock and Hunter lol. Forgot how much I enjoyed playing the game
My favourite has got to be
Nier Automata
If you haven't played it I strongly suggest you do
So many twists and turns
The robot characters are named around famous philosophyers
The game touches on robots having emotions etc etc
Fucking fantastic honestly

Bioshock (obvs) but also Bioshock Infinite.
And Wolfenstein: The New Order.
Oh, and Ghouls'n'Ghosts....

I got hooked on the Sierra adventure games back in the early 90's. That led me on to the epic Broken Sword series by Revolution. Still worth checking out for its humour and storyline. Point and click has never been such fun.

What Is The Strongest Strain ?

Gorilla glue and alien dawg are two very strong indicas that will leave you locked to your couch x) my favorites for sure.
Old school strains with more landrace indica than most modern coffee shop strains and something different to the usual.
8 Ball from Barneys is a super couch-lock-maker!
But the champ and all time favorite is the Bubblegum AK..
Ak was always a phat and heavy strain, but bubblegum is a creeper and the cross is the best indica we've tested outside of South American landrace seedy buds. More modern, but still old-school and potent.

Love bubblegum but the good stuff is kinda hard to find ,hit me with a link if you got some top self stuff
We have it on our shelf link added.
Is your tolerance high and what type of stoned feeling do you prefer the most, do you like feeling “fucked up” or “chilled” personally I want to feel “fucked up” not like crack cocaine or meth fucked up but something that makes me go “oh shit, I’m fucking wrecked” none of this sativa hyper active nonsense that every one says gets you “fucked up” I wanna be almost falling asleep, if you know what I mean
My tolerance is very very high as I smoke everyday multiple times. Does not leave me funked up but if your tolerance is low, it will leave you lost in your thoughts
Also if you wanna be almost asleep, yes, this is what you are looking for. Basically you want the strongest Indica's.
Yeah I’ll definitely try those 2 strains, do you know if they have been crossed with each other yet if they haven’t I may divulge into that see if a monster can be made, or maybe they will cancel each other out, who knows
look ad rader breeders strains, he has quite a few A grade strains for VERY reasonable prices.. the dutch super silver haze is on my radar;).. but FR tho check him out.. insanee prices and its sativa too!
Not for gorilla glue but you can get some awesome stardawg from pistachiu and some alien dawg from my go to here, the Green Team. Can not go wrong with those two.

I have had white widow many of times but there was this one that stands out by a mile. It was absolutely stacked with trichs and smelt angry (in a good way). We lit a joint and that’s the last thing I remember, what felt like waking up was just me coming round about a 30 minutes later. We lit another one and it was just mind blowingly amazing.
Impossible to say as it's as much about the skill of the grower as it is the strain. Potent strains can be poorly produced and mild strains can be really well produced. Harvest too early before the trichomes have gone from clear to white, and the THC levels will be low. Harvest at the right time but use the wrong nutrients, same problem - low THC. It's a steep learning curve growing good cannabis.
Google says
“The longest string passed through the nose and mouth in one minute is 115 m (377.3 ft) and was achieved by Girish Kumar (India) at the Royal Meenakshi Mall in Bangalore, India on 26 October 2013.”
That’s pretty long
“The longest string passed through the nose and mouth in one minute is 115 m (377.3 ft) and was achieved by Girish Kumar (India) at the Royal Meenakshi Mall in Bangalore, India on 26 October 2013.”
That’s pretty long
It is, but I can buy 200m lengths of chord with relative ease so it's not the longest ever. Definitely serves to reinforce my point though, there isn't a strongest strain, there is only the skill of the grower and level of equipment asking which vendor has the highest THC % or something would be more astute
Yeah it does reinforce your point but weed in my opinion is only as good as the strain, like a bodybuilders kid compared to a malnourished persons kid, overall the bodybuilders kid will naturally be stronger in pretty much every aspect while the other kid won’t naturally be strong in anything, but like you said it depends on the grower, so with equal amounts of training they could be close to equal but if it’s all done correctly the bodybuilders kid will always win, based on the amazing foundation it started off with, so I still personally believe strains matter, and Tahoe cookies has been floating around for like the last month or so so I might have to see what this hype is about, do you smoke often, is your tolerance high ?
Naw man I've had amnesia that beats the tits off of the ice cream cake I tried recently from a fairly well known vendor. In not the strain thatatters it's all about how it's grown and what they have used on it imho.
Just on that note, in my mind there is only one strain of ice cream cake and it is my absolute obsession: the ever awesome Drugs Inc UK's "uncle Benz ice cream cake" literally some of the best weed I've ever smoked and is on par with dispensary bud I've had in Colorado and Cali, better than some in fact!
Seriously though that one gets my vote for top bud, if it comes back I highly suggest you grab an Oz or two you won't be disappointed!
I hold much more reverence for an uncle Benz variety than I do for Cali and that's because it's a stamp of quality that's never let me down, I don't know who uncle Benz is or where's he's from but I love him and I love DIUK for bringing us his wares 😂

I will definitely keep an eye out for this “uncle Benz” weed, the way you have wrote about it makes it sound very tempting to buy, must be high quality, imo cali is just overrated other than those jungle boys packs, oooooh weeee they hit differently, like someone just came in your room in the middle of the night and hit you with a toaster.
just in case you feel like getting a bit upset you missed it hahahaha
I've literally written reviews on all the Benz ones haha it's a hobby!
Press control and f and type in Benz and you'll see them, though I'm loving the Tahoe cookies at the moment it's just knockout strong and super tasty weed that being said the ice cream cake is just the best shit around

Not personally tried it but Barney's farm Dr Grinspoon is meant to be a really strong sativa but it has a long as fuckkkk flowering time and its buds grow weird so it's not popular with growers

Safety in receiving packages in the UK
Hi. I live in Scotland and am planning to make a purchase here for the first time. It's for personal use only and i don't see myself buying more than 5-7 gms ever. I'd like to know about the risks involved in receiving the package in the mail from the experiences of others here. Cheers!
I'm up in Scotland too =) I've ordered hashish from 2 different sellers and both turned up without any issues. Sellers I used were "thc in the uk" and "The Daily Puff". Both good products. My largest order is 7g to date.
I've also had a friend down south mail me marijuana over a dozen times over the years and it's never gone missing.
I've also had a friend down south mail me marijuana over a dozen times over the years and it's never gone missing.
Order from a UK based seller and the risk of is very close to zero. Europe still less than 1%, North America and I'd say it's 1-3% chance you'll have it stuck in customs.
Replying to myself to help others out since I’ve been here for a while now (since my original post). Yes, receiving packages in Scotland works very well. My fav shop in the past was nextdayweeduk, now it’s GodsConnect
Im a new vendor (UK), please have a look at my item page for a good deal on high quality bud.
bought 3 items from urbanleaf and all 3 turned up the next day https://littlebiggy.org/viewSubject/p/4788667
Scotland is all good brudda! Most vendors on here operate incredibly stealthily. I would advise using NDD if possible due to the post at each end and the COVID.
NDWUK is a great, I'm in Ireland and it gets through...Cali world is the best I've seen for larger orders too
Don't know how old this is but in case you're still hanging from the ceiling for an answer, yeah they sold on here but haven't seen anything of them for some time. I was buying from their site years ago. Same products but were dearer here, I assume to account for the fees
10+buys, never had a problem, always mylar packed in bubble envelopes from all sellers on here.
I have made 10 orders, and with the stealth used by the vendors here, your package could be anything you bought on ebay or from a web site. Unless you normally have issues with your post, you have nothing to be concerned about i'm sure. FYI i'm in Devon, but scotland's not gonna be any different. Chill order and enjoy :)
As a seller I always vacuum pack my product before securing it in a layer of bubblewrap and a plain polythene shipping bag. The packaging looks like a million-and-one other items sent daily on eBay, Amazon and other retail sites. Discretion is assured. The only real hurdles are making sure the correct postage fee has been applied so as to ensure delivery, and that your postie isn't incompetent and/or untrustworthy.
It's probably safer than giving it to your mates to deliver....or me. Can't see there's much difference between Scotland and England when it comes to postal service. So far I've had 100% delivered. I keep to small amounts should anything happen. Peace
Hi rkc and welcome! It’s depends on the vendor I guess. But generally speaking there is a high level of stealth among most vendors here - best to check reviews of items. There is often mention of stealth etc. I’m a vendor and ship to Scotland and Northern Ireland regularly without issues 👍🏽 Touch wood, so far, they’ve all landed.
All serious vendors make packages pretty hard to be detected.
Most of the time it is vacuum sealed or even double vacuum sealed, so smell proof. And if done all precautions it cannot be detected even by the dogs. Vacuum yo.
Some use aluminium, so scanners won't reveal whats inside, i suppose.
I think it is pretty safe, unless it is a random check or package was damaged.
Communication with the vendor and patience are the keys i guess.
Have a look here - there are many reputable vendors who i am sure will get you your package quick and safe.

What would one do if they did get a knock from police, how serious is receiving weed in the mail?
You are not responsible for what people send you in the post. If the police come knocking you have no idea why someone posted weed to you. They can’t prove you ordered it!!

Hi guys, been a fairly regular buyer on here and find myself in a situation that is new to me.
I wont name any names or strains but I recently bought a Q of something a fair bit pricier and nicer looking than my usual haunt.
Upon arrival the cannabis is low quality, without smell, flavour or a strong effect.
Was just curious how you Biggas respond when this happens to you.
I figure swallow the loss, email the vendor and hope for a resolution.
Has this happened to you ever? What was your response? What was the resolution.
Thanks a lot

The best sellers on here are in it for the long term and there is no secret to their success- they keep their customers happy. If you’ve bought from an established seller then open a dialogue being as fair and reasonable as you sound. (There is a small group of very angry Biggas on here who feel the solution is to hurl about the most vitriolic abuse- it isn’t 😉)
Of course it’s subjective- one man’s meat is another’s poison- and there are definitely some who will try it on for a free reship but good vendors will listen and try to help. They want their products to be loved!
If it’s a new seller with limited reviews then you may have got stung, especially if they won’t engage with you. Leave a review that is an accurate reflection and put it down to experience..
There really are some brilliant sellers on here that will never let you down IMO….👍❤️🎅

Thanks very much for taking the time to try and help me out fellers. I got a second opinion. We're in full agreeance that the product is bunk.
I have messaged the vendor politely, so far no response so will press the dispute button when I can.
Im not throwing my toys out of the pram. But I cannot help but feel frustrated when the vendor posts to the wall. But does not respond to a message.
Even more frustrated when the post is about a price slashing of the product I am unhappy with!
Will stop rambling now and wish you all the best. Cheers

Good point and IMHO good on you for asking rather than ranting.
FWIW I'v head some deals recently that smelled of fuck all. However they've not fallen short on the effect. Sounds like you've been unlucky to get odourless and weak weed. It all depends on the vendor. If you keep it out of the public eye and see what the vendor says I think thats good route. If the vendor doesn't play ball then escrow could be the way to go. I've not bothered when I've received weed but been disappointed in it. Just my way as I'm not really up for a (potential) argument with someone who has my home address. I just won't use them again. As PP says the established vendors are there for a reason.

speak to the vendor. Most will be keen to come to a resolution. Ive only had to reach out about problems with orders twice, both vendors were great at dealing with it.
As a new seller I'm determined to meet my buyers' expectations to the extent that I'd never sell a product that doesn't tick all the boxes. That said, you're always going to have that rare seller who doesn't give a damn as long as they get paid. My advice for your situation would be to get a second opinion on the product from someone you know and trust, and if they concur with your assessment, send a polite email to the seller. It's possible you just got unlucky, but if the seller has good reviews/reputation I'd give them the benefit of the doubt and give them a chance to respond.
Similar question -stuff ordered ran out so vendor switched to “similar” it wasn’t what I ordered but same price for quantity then took ages to arrive and noticed put first class stamp on rather than sending via tracked like I had paid £5 for -I questioned this to be told -next time I’ll do you free postage well I ain’t buying from him again so do I leave honest feed back or raise dispute?
you need to do both ;}
make sure you have a photo in your official rating, this will help with the dispute process.
you can always cancel the dispute if you reach a settlement with the seller.
